We regulate drugs, right?
You have to be 21 to drink.
You have to have certain barriers for things.
And so I understand this push, right, if you're going to regulate and work with the tech companies, right?
We're at this impasse.
And I think the tech companies are actually open to it because they don't want to be dragged into these sort of, I think, frivolous lawsuits.
I think these are just litigious people looking for millions of dollars.
I think the tech companies are willing to work with the federal government and the people to say, how can we have a meeting of the minds?
How can we come together and make a platform that works?
Mark Zuckerberg has signaled that he is open to this.
Other big tech giants, they have signaled they're open to this.
Tim Cook has made comments recently.
He wants people to get outside, doesn't want them to be on their phones all day.
And so it is interesting to see these tech folks say, listen, we understand people have gotten addicted to social media.
That being said, you have free will in this country, right?
And I think if you're 20 years old,
You should be old enough to know what you can and can't handle, right?
And if you can't handle being on social media, it's impacting your mental health negatively, doesn't mean you get to turn around and sue the company.
Turn your phone off, turn your phone off.
And so where's the accountability?
