Critical Thinkingj Questions in Features
Adaptingj the Law to the Online Environment
1. One observerj has said thatj the American legal system should evaluate social media
companies based on how ―they affect us as citizens, not onlyj [on how] theyj affect
us as consumers.‖ What is your opinion of this statement?
Solution
The person who made this statement clearly sees a ―citizen‖ as having different
motivations and concerns than aj ―consumer.‖ Presumably, a citizen is mostly
concerned with the good ofj society as a whole, and therefore would be open to the
idea of government regulation that restricted thenegative influence of social media,
regardless of the First Amendment. A consumer, byj contrast, would be primarilyj
concerned with having a marketplace that offers the widest possible varieties of
freedom (of choice, of speech, etc.) andj would forj that reason bej opposed to
government regulation ofj social media. Therej is, however, an argument to be madej
that the citizens that make up a society benefit when the marketplace of ideas—
whetherj theyj are subjectively
―positive‖ orj ―negative‖—is allowed to flourish in the absence of government regulation.
