Taking away liability is very simple. No immunity. Mark apologizes because he was forced to do so. Social media is a great tool but has underneed problems with sexual predators, scammers, drug traffic, and the list never ends. Mark started the online social media, and never through sexual exploration will be under the site. Sending nude adult pictures will create a problem. Scammers will be using his site. Drug dealers will sell. Sometimes great technology has problems. Now that he sees the parents behind him, maybe he understands the problem. Social media should do something about it. Work together to stop the problems. Work with the FBI to understand what is wrong. Corporations shouldn't have immunity at all. China saw something and did something. Asked Tik-Tok: What happened? Why doesn't China want them? Many people don't understand the problem because they are involved with it. Many people called the sites the dark web. Many people call it fear. It's not fear; it's reality. China also uses the data from America through TikTok.
Omg. Parents, take some responsibility for your crotch goblins. Take away the phone, install parental locks, look after your kids, any mixture of the things I just mentioned. Your parental skills are pathetic. It's like blaming McDonald's that your kids are fat. Why are you buying it for them? Why are you letting it happen? Why aren't you stopping them? They are your kids, not your friends. Act like a god damn parent and control your child. I swear these new generation of parents are the most useless I have ever seen. If your child is doing something stupid, then that's on you. Children aren't born with an ipad, iphone and a facebook account. You provided it to them. You failed them.
Social media is destroying the future workforce of this country . These young men all they want to do at work is be on the phone all day, and they will get mad if you tell them to do something.
So social media is 18+ by default.

Blame the parents
Parents are to be blamed not the ceo them
Even billionaires are just as small as the little guy
Then do something about it…
Get rid of communist tik tok and repeal 230
Video is NOT playing.
Audio only.
As an educator in a public school, I am quite concerned about the woke curriculum in our educational system. Social media apps are the enabling tools that not only put our national security at risk but also harm our children and destroy marriage and family. As a parent of two teenagers, I have to shelter them by putting them in parochial schools. Glad to see that lawmakers are holding these big techs accountable. Thank you, and God bless.
This is like blaming the postal service because kids were getting mean notes in the mail. Fucking dumb
So if you spell something wrong on paper do you blame the pencil?
Just don't let kids be on social media, or be a perent for once and check on what your kid is doing on the internet. Internet is the world without censor, you have to expect that have gore, sex and bullies. I don't blame those CEOs for the evil in people.
CHINA DID NOT CREATE COVID WITH AMERICAN MONEY!!!! REPEAT, CHINA DID NOT CREATE COVID WITH AMERICAN MONEY!!!!
Yes there is. The censorship is beyond corrupt.
1)kids do not belong on adult content.
2) we need to use the words we used to and stop coddling everyone.
Kill, rape, sexual, sitting indian style… all taken out bc of spineless people. Stop putting trans stuff on there, stop teaching kids to follow someone else.
Why did the kid send nuke pics?
SO ITS NOT THE PARENTS FAULT?
Gun control… not serious at all….
I don't care what any existing body of scientific research says,I live in the real world and have seen the mental ,emotional and educational decline in kids and adults happen over the decades due to social media
As soon as a child enters their age into an email.. all thes social media shouldn't be av
Im so confused…
Aren't some of these politicians angry when their cult leader is blocked for bullying on major social media
Leave social media ceos alone, you old Republican punks!
Guess big pharm, auto manufacturers, tobacco Corp and "COVID", ect ect didn't harm ppl? All above put $ in pockets above as they did prior while lobbying. All trickles down to nothing for common man.
They all have blood on their hands … The Republicans support the genocide of Palestinians…killed millions in Iraq… A bunch of hypocrites and those who are applauding are hypocrites too
No he did not apologize. He said I am sorry of what you went through. He had to say I am sorry and I will do my best to invest more protection on his platform
Did Zuckerberg personally bully those kids? Lmao. Why didnt the parents just take their internet away?
I hate Facebook but censorship is not the way.
I'm tired of social media censorship. Sorry natural selection happened but maybe try shutting it off.
Republicans and some democrats!! 😂😂😂 pass some bills to help the people
All for show the government wants to kill us all
DAVID SO VSEY STADOY POMRI
