    This discussion asks how best to address the spread of misinformation and harmful content on social media without stifling free speech. Increased regulation might protect users, but where should the line be drawn to avoid unnecessary censorship? What regulatory measures could balance these competing concerns?

    I’m all about free speech—I love that we can share our thoughts openly—but I also get seriously annoyed by all the fake news and harmful content popping up online. I think we need some smart, targeted rules to clean up the mess without muzzling real conversations. Transparency in how these rules are enforced is key for me.
