"The Nature of Hermes" is a short essay by Karl Jones.
The Nature of Hermes
Social media spread baseless conspiracies, true
But can regulation get anywhere at all?
I have this mental image of social media as a giant blob of mercury spilled all over the globe.
Who could begin to regulate all those slippery bits of liquid metal?
Try to grab a blob, it squirts away into smaller blobs.
We will get regulation, all right — no end of it.
But will our regulation accord with the nature of Hermes?
