Absolutely. While we're at it, why should asbestos be regulated? You can just not go in buildings that have it.

- pjc50 2mo agoThis is basically the Californian Prop 65 compromise: put up a sign saying the building contains carcinogens, but not actually do anything about them.
- bcjdjsndon 2mo agoSo log off? If you think it's really that bad why are you anywhere near a screen at all?
- pjc50 2mo agoDo you know what a negative externality is?
- telchior 2mo agoThere's good reason for a lot of the inaction around asbestos. If it's not moving, not being touched and not accessible to kids / pets etc then it's fine to leave alone. The alternative being extremely costly remediation, and there are still millions of structures with asbestos in them. ... Prop 65 is dumb though. Kind of a trend in California law.
- brandonmenc 2mo agoCall me when "infinite scroll" causes cancer.
- denkmoon 2mo agoIt is a cancer of the body politic.
- bradleykingz 2mo agoit kinda does?
- afavour 2mo agoI would agree that infinite scrolling social media feeds do induce a kind of sickness. But a mental one.

- tt24 2mo agoI’d have no problem with this as long as the building makes it known that it contains asbestos. Infinite scroll is immediately evident. Just don’t use it if you don’t like it
- gghackernewsgg 2mo agoCompletely agree. What are your thoughts on introducing a law that requires social media sites with infinite scroll to feature an addiction warning, something like: "Using this platform may cause addiction in some users."?
- tt24 2mo agoNot thrilled about it but it would be way better than this
