We can never trust the social media companies to clean themselves up, they will always do everything in their power to be evil.

Thus we need actual regulations:

1) Mandate that all content algorithms must be published, making them subject to independent review

2) Hold social media companies legally responsible for the content pushed by their algorithms by removing the safe harbour provisions so many countries enacted in the early days of the internet. Those provisions shield social media companies from liability for the content their algorithms push. Any content pushed by an algorithm should be considered published by the social media company and it should be held fully liable.
