Adapting the Law to the Online Environment

1. One observer has said that the American legal system should evaluate social media companies
as as as as as as as as as as as as as
based on how ―they affect us as citizens, not only [on how] they affect us as consumers.‖ What is
as as as as as as as as as as as as as as as as as as as
your opinion of this statement?
as as as as as
Solution
The person who made this statement clearly sees a ―citizen‖ as having different motivations and
as as as as as as as as as as as as as as
concerns than a ―consumer.‖ Presumably, a citizen is mostly concerned with the good of society as a
as as as as as as as as as as as as as as as as as
whole, and therefore would be open to the idea of government regulation that restricted thenegative
as as as as as as as as as as as as as as as sa
influence of social media, regardless of the First Amendment. A consumer, by contrast, would be
as as as as as as as as as as as as as as as
primarily concerned with having a marketplace that offers the widest possible varieties of freedom
as as as as as as as as as as as as as as
(of choice, of speech, etc.) and would for that reason be opposed to government regulation of social
as as as as as as as as as as as as as as as as as
media. There is, however, an argument to be made that the citizens that make up a society benefit
as as as as as as as as as as as as as as as as as as
when the marketplace of ideas—whether they are subjectively
as as as as as as as as
―positive‖ or ―negative‖—is allowed to flourish in the absence of government regulation.

2. Tim Cook, Apple‘s chief operating officer, has suggested that the United States Congress shouldpass a
as as as as as as as as as as as as as sa as
law limiting the ability of Apple and other tech countries to keep consumer data private. Why
as as as as as as as as as as as as as as as as
would a business executive make such a request?
