I mean, you try to get as close to that as possible, but I think really kind of economically what you're just trying to do is make it so that it's just inefficient for them to go after that.
Absolutely.
I really agree with what you're pushing on.
I mean, the core shape of the problem is that there are some harms that I think everyone agrees are bad, right?
So...
sexual exploitation of children.
You're not going to get many people who think that that type of thing should be allowed on any service.
And that's something that we face and try to push off as much as possible today.
Terrorism, inciting violence.
We went through a bunch of these types of harms before.
But then I do think that you get to a set of harms where there is more social debate around it.
So misinformation, I think, has been a really tricky one because there are things that are kind of obviously false, right?
That are maybe factual, but may not be harmful, right?
So it's like, all right, are you going to censor someone for just being wrong if there's no kind of harm implication of what they're doing?
I think that there's a bunch of real kind of issues and challenges there.
But then I think that there are other places where it is, you know, just take some of the stuff around COVID earlier on in the pandemic where there were, you know, real health implications, but there hadn't been time to fully vet a bunch of the scientific assumptions.
And, you know, unfortunately, I think a lot of the kind of establishment on that, you know, kind of waffled on a bunch of facts and, you know, asked for a bunch of things to be censored that in retrospect ended up being, you know,
more debatable or or true and that stuff is really tough right really undermines trust and and that and um so i i do think that the questions around how to manage that are are are very nuanced the way that i try to think about it is that um
I think it's best to generally boil things down to the harms that people agree on.
So when you think about is something misinformation or not, I think often the more salient bit is, is this going to potentially lead to...
