If we're going to fix the things that caused the Capitol riots, we need to stop treating social media as social platforms and start treating them like broadcasting platforms. Twitter is not a town square. It has none of social limits that a town square provides....

...no limits on disrupting the peace, no physical limit to the number of people you talk to, no social nicety limits of being in proximity to the person you're speaking to, both to see them as human, and also to think about what you dare say to someone's face...

...social media is broadcasting. I'm broadcasting right now. Trump was certainly broadcasting to his 80 million followers. Broadcasters have responsibilities. As users get more and more followers, they should be more and more liable for what they say...

...the more followers we have on a platform, the more we should be held to account for our behavior, accuracy, and words. If you have a hundred followers it's different than when you have a million. We need some kind of information guardrails, or we'll go off the rails again.
