Jessica Grose , The New York Times; Public Shame Is the Most Effective Tool for Battling Big Tech
"It might be harder to shame the tech companies themselves into making their products safer, but we can shame third-party companies like toymakers, app stores and advertisers into ending partnerships. And with enough public disapproval, legislators might be inspired to act.
In some of the very worst corners of the internet might lie some hope...
Without more public shaming, what seems to be the implacable forward march of A.I. is unstoppable...
As Jay Caspian Kang noted in The New Yorker recently, changing social norms around kids and tech use can be powerful, and reforms like smartphone bans in schools have happened fairly quickly, and mostly on the state and local level."
