Social media platforms should be more strictly regulated by the government

Man, I get that social media has its issues, but asking the government to step in and regulate it more? That's a slippery slope. I mean, sure, there are problems with misinformation and privacy breaches, but I'd rather see the platforms themselves stepping up and taking responsibility than having Big Brother tell us what we can and can't see online. The government doesn't always have the best track record when it comes to regulating new tech, you know?
