BTW - I’m NOT saying GOVERNMENT should be “controlling” social media. I’m saying they’ve become too big, these tech companies are now too powerful. They need to be broken up, which aligns with existing anti-trust laws.

Put a little meat on that bone.

Break FB up into what? Little Facebooks? You still have to address the problem that everybody will gravitate towards a common arena, because that's the whole point of social media. Build a better product and entice people to use it - that's the solution.

It will be difficult, but government mandated solutions tend towards totalitarianism.
