1. One observer has said that the American legal system should evaluate social media companies based on how
l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l
―they affect us as citizens, not only [on how] they affect us as consumers.‖What is your opinion ofthis
l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l
statement? l
Solution
The person who made this statement clearly sees a ―citizen‖ as having different motivations and concerns than a
l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l
―consumer.‖ Presumably, a citizen is mostly concerned with the good of society asawhole, andtherefore would
l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l
be opentotheidea ofgovernment regulationthat restrictedthenegative influence of social media, regardless of
l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l
the First Amendment. A consumer, by contrast, would be primarily concerned with having a marketplace that
l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l
offers the widest possible varieties of freedom (of choice, of speech, etc.) and would for that reason be opposed
l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l
to government regulation of social media. There is, however, an argument to be made that the citizens that make
l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l
upa society benefit when the marketplace ofideas—whetherthey are subjectively
l l l l l l l l l l l l
―positive‖ or ―negative‖—is allowed to flourish in the absence ofgovernment regulation. l l l l l l l l l l l
2. TimCook, Apple‘s chiefoperatingofficer,has suggested thattheUnitedStatesCongress shouldpass a law
l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l
limiting the ability of Apple and other tech countries to keep consumer data private. Whywould a business
l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l l
executive make such a request?
