As it happens, I would suggest that the idea that somehow we CAN just stop all of bad human behaviour online would be the most extreme techno-utopianism possible.

Huh. Not totally sure you understand what "ad hominem" means.
But moving on from that, I'm not objecting to the notion that we might need different models. The way we do anything today is unlikely to be the best way for all of time. Given that I've spent years trying to improve things, perhaps you can take it as read that I think we can improve things.
What I'm objecting to is your fatalism that bad shit is probably going to happen to somebody (a note you include in your closing paragraph) combined with your failure to examine exactly who's going to bear the brunt of it. Something you conspicuously didn't do in your reply here, instead suggesting it's some sort of shocking rudeness to point out that as a rich person, it's unlikely to be you.
