I hope you realize that you have addressed nothing in my post, you are just squirming on some irrelevant stuff.

Once you find a solid counter argument to "its a product that people are free not to use", then we can have a conversation.

Anyone with kids could tell you that this is an ethically vacant position to hold. Particularly given the social network effects of not being on these platforms and the addiction engineering that goes into keeping you on them, especially at an age when you're prone to feeling insecure about your place in the world. The effects are pronounced in children, but still hold for adults.

Anyway, I think I've said all I possibly can to educate you. I hope you can take something from it.
