Do you believe that META bears any responsibilities for these horrific crimes?
I think that our responsibility is to develop tools that can help identify people like this and prevent these things from happening.
Some of those regulations are OK.
A lot of them are knee-jerk and aren't really thought through.
These crimes are done by these criminals who are sex offenders.
And we should work as hard as we can to stop that activity from happening.
But at the end of the day, I think it's those criminals that need to be brought to justice, and our job is to make it as difficult as possible.
I mean, what exactly are we talking about here?
Well, the Substack is over at populassolutions.substack.com and we posted it on X as well.
But I think the big question here is, you know, there's two paths that the administration can take on this.
And we're hoping that they take the path that is protecting kids in a major way.
And, you know, I'll say, Steve, you know, I have.
my disagreements with Mr. Sachs and, but the duty of care question, you know, we don't really apply the same logic to other issues.
If a hospital performs a surgery wrongly on your kid, you know, the duty of care, we're not going to say that's the parent's fault.
That's obviously on the hospital.
If a school trans is your kid without you knowing that's on the school, you should be able to sue them.
And so I think certainly here, when you're dealing with kids,
um killing themselves sadly because of you know an interaction with a chat bot or you're talking about them being exposed to sexualized content or predators or whatever obviously there does have to be some sort of duty of care with the companies themselves
Well, we have a lot of different groups, as you mentioned, with different strategies, different red lines that I would say when it comes to getting a national framework passed.
But ultimately, I think we all care about getting something done to protect kids online.
