      Should it be inconvenient and inaccessible?

      A knife is a convenient and accessible tool as well, I could use it to hurt myself or others, or use it to prepare a nice meal for myself and others. It’s up to me how I use it, not the knife.

        A knife is convenient and accessible as well true, but it is easy to understand that swinging a knife will hurt yourself and/or others.

        While social media doesn’t have that, we don’t automatically identify social media as dangerous unlike swinging a knife or pointing a gun.

        I do understand your point that the user is still responsible in some way, I just think that knowledge of its danger be more widespread.
