I'd love to see what you come up with, but I think even social media companies themselves, with all the understanding they have, would struggle to define something that cut around mostly the behavior to disincentivize. It's too fundamental to what makes networks work at all.

I think the obvious next step is just to bite the bullet and build social networks with physical levels of civility, real economies, and online governance. Smart contracts make much of this newly possible. Economics means people build value rather than jostle for attention.

attention is essential for distribution. How do you envision decentralized sales/marketing?

Google, FB, Amazon bought hundreds of companies because we didn't enforce merger law or implement coherent privacy rules. These were political economy choices not technological *at all.* Podcasting is still decentralized, we don't have to let it vertically integrate.

If government could limit the power of digital platform owners to infrastructure decisions and allow content to be protected by the first amendment... It just seems like that shouldn't be too hard to legislate.
