This is were an agile approach to releasing society changing new technologies falls down.
Social media platforms aren't able to moderate or safeguard their users in the current text and video interface. Yet they want to extend their offering to VR.
Statements like this make me seem really reactionary. But it feels like we've spent the last 25yrs watching a libertarian experiment with the Internet, and where we've ended up is that you need a bit of thought and regulation.
You obviously can't plan and mitigate against every eventuality, but lots have been raised and yet there is no real conversation or planning.
