Shout out the Ontario school boards suing social media giants for the harm caused to kids. Edit: forgot the /s!
To be clear, the article tries to make clear that the social media panic is a moral panic comparable to every other media or recreational moral panic like rock music, dungeons and dragons, and video games. And I agree with the author.
