It took years, sometimes centuries, to understand that in some industries a take over should get a regulatory approval. Maybe a central social media platform with enormous influence on public opinions, should be too.

There is disproportion between the time/price required to participate and the time/price to moderate. And when people get high power with low price - they use it. SO should put some penalty on wrong moderation decisions.

This is a bit like the difference between old wars, where people faced their foes, and modern war where you guide some weapons on a screen. You care less.

Maybe we need to shift focus to lowering the cost of False positive? The industry is willing to skip ton of great candidates that fail the "audition", just to avoid false positives. Otherwise great people and employees are ruled out, just because they can't reflect their true value at work in a stressed 1-2 hours interview. Cheaper false positive hiring may ease the pressure on the companies side to let them in. Having said that, because of stress, questions on interview should be 50%-60% difficult since the interviewee is not at 100%.
