YEP....Andrew Yang says breaking up big tech won't solve 'fundamental problems' of social media | Yang acknowledged that while it would make sense for tech giants to divest certain parts of their businesses, he believes that "one of the fundamental problems is that our social media apps are causing higher levels of depression, anxiety among teenagers and breaking up the apps into separate companies does nothing to change that." Yang has proposed creating what he calls an “attention economy” department that would focus specifically on how to design and use social media apps more responsibly. This would include age restrictions and guidelines on chat and gaming apps. “There needs to be some kind of counter weight that looks out for our kids,” he said, referring to the plan.
