      Thank you. I do suspect that part of the answer is the effects are hard to separate, and I do really appreciate all the work and creativity goes into papers like yours. My frustration is completely on why we, as a field, still don't have the resources for a national panel etc.

      I wonder if there is a way that the creation of such a panel could be part of government regulation/legislation on social media.

      Would need a panel survey + web trackers for content. It's a lot of privacy to surrender, but people may be willing for the right compensation and assurance of anonymity. And some promises to save the world...

      Yeah, but the companies already do this (they do the web tracking for billions and they even have panels of their own), and at least as academics, we have oversight and public interest as our priority.

      And there are also issues with a lot of the web-tracking data (for example, capturing browser loads but not necessarily how info is seen inside social media apps). Still, I really love @andyguess and @j_a_tucker's work with these data (and @BrendanNyhan's new stuff too).

      I do think there’s an opportunity for a large-scale panel of the kind @JessicaFeezell suggests, building on efforts by folks like @themarkup @LeonYin. Though none of this solves the self-selection -> feedback -> ... issue

      As long as we're designing "dream" studies, I'd also like to make a pitch for more evidence outside the U.S. It's very likely, I think, that a lot of the U.S. results won't translate elsewhere for a variety of important (yet poorly understood) reasons.

      Should we just send this Twitter thread to NSF? 😃

      Hahah- I am actually on the NSF SBE Advisory Council, and have tried to advocate for this idea (as have others), so stay tuned! But I think the type of study we are describing may exceed the resources of NSF alone :(

      Yeah. I agree it's expensive but we're muddling through one of the most important questions facing us without the kind of data that we mostly know how to get. They keep holding these hearings with tech CEOs instead of funding the research and I keep screaming into the void....

          An interesting question is whether such a measure could receive bipartisan support- dem. concerns about radicalization for profit and rep. concerns about censorship could *hypothetically* both be adjudicated with such data

          Is there a way to make this data collection effort an attractive news story? So many talented journalists are in this space already and appreciate the need for such data (e.g. @kevinroose @justinhendrix @WillOremus @ranimolla @nitashatiku @cwarzel @CaseyNewton )
