I actually liked a lot of what Stephen's amendment did, however I don't
know who I would *punish* with the responsibility that his idea created.

I also think that any committee tasked with this should also consider
policy recommendations for other social media outlets, as they offer
suggestions on Facebook. That would require a strong understanding of those
outlets and their mechanics. At the very least, finding members that have
an expertise in each of the outlets we utilize (YouTube, Twitter,
Instagram, Snapchat, and ugh... Google+). There have been discussions about
this within the APRC, however due to the confidential nature of the
committee, I cannot disclose those discussions or their outcomes (or lack
thereof).
