I don't think banning outright is the solution, but I do think that social media has a tremendous amount of power and can impact things like elections if you have control over the recommendation algorithm on one of these sites.
I think more transparency into how these recommendation algorithms work is required especially when it comes to elections, as well as mechanisms to verify that they aren't being tampered with.
