Adapting the Law to the Online Environment
One observer has said that the American legal system should evaluate social media
companies based on how ―they affect us as citizens, not only [on how] they 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 a ―consumer. Presumably, a citizen is mostly
concerned with the good of 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, by contrast, would be primarily
concerned with having a marketplace that offers the widest possible varieties of
freedom (of choice, of speech, etc.) and would for that reason be opposed to
government regulation of social media. There is, however, an argument to be made
that the citizens that make up a society benefit when the marketplace of ideas—
whether they are subjectively
―positive or ―negative —is allowed to flourish in the absence of government
regulation.
1. Tim Cook, Apple‘s chief operating officer, has suggested that the United States
Congress shouldpass a law limiting the ability of Apple and other tech countries
to keep consumer data private. Why would a business executive make such a
request?
