@gwbstr @ZoeDarme @mmasnick yea, I was reacting less to the specific feed injection (though only FB is privileged to do it) and more to reporting saying that FB is done apologizing and will be turning to a PR strategy to include cutting off much data sharing with independent researchers

@ericspiegelman Well, I don't see it as an all-or-nothing application of a doctrine like that. The piece I'd carry over is a duty not to use the instrumentality to its own advantage in a way that no one else can. Which is different from "gotta allow everything," incoherent w/any algo feed.

But there's no one guaranteeing a satisfying third act here. It's not as simple as throwing the "regulation" switch, especially because the unprecedented power configuration of a single-sourced feed with billions of subscribers will call for new and creative remedies.
