You talked about data collection through online policies in several social media platforms such as Instagram. If that is the case, then would social media become safer if there were no online policies, or if they were somehow moderated or transformed into a more secure method?

You guys discussed about YouTube and how quick they are about copyright laws and how it goes against TOS (Terms of Service) by using unoriginal content. But there have be instances where large content creators have been backed by YouTube even though their content was considered stole. Why do you think that YouTube won't take action about this.

You guys talked about how it is negative for social media platforms to invade people's personal information after they download the app, but aren't they legally required to state this in their terms of service? If that's the case, isn't it the users fault for not carefully reading through the TOS?
