Platforms need to better recognize when content is right for some and not for others, when finding what you searched for is not the same as being invited to see more, and when what‘s good for the individual may not be good for the public as a whole.
Isn't this a good thing? It's very easy for politicians and bureaucrats to simply say "ban everything", so it's welcome that they're saying "it's complicated, we don't want to ban everything, we do want to make it harder for some people to access some content". It's a more honest discussion.
It sounds only slightly better. In essence it's still about the government telling others that they know better than the person. This kind of thing is bound to get false positives. We also know that the government doesn't care about false positives, because I almost never see a politician address abuse from involuntary commitment.
