Mark Zuckerberg’s most recent effort to change the conversation about Facebook seems like just another attempt at self-justification. In a recent op-ed, he places the onus squarely on the shoulders of government to do the right things by regulating how social media works. “From what I’ve learned, I believe we need new regulation in four areas: harmful content, election integrity, privacy and data portability,” Zuckerberg wrote. Translation: Please keep me from doing this because I can’t do it myself.
Zuckerberg Tries, Tries Again
