it doesn't need to be replaced, it needs to be better funded and given bigger teeth. To go after those that abuse their customers and the scammers.
We start by making social media platforms liable for the content they host and allow on their platforms. Minimum fines for lies, hate and bile. You make the finest so large, for every view and share of the content that it's unprofitable for them to allow it.
Then you close the loopholes that allow companies to be closed and declared bankrupt to avoid paying fines, only for the same scum to start up an identical company to do the same scummy things again. Make the owners directly liable financially and if they dispose of proceeds, they get locked up.

When I made muffins two days ago I only used half of the blueberries and raspberries. If our refrigerator/freezer wasn't trying to quit on me I would've frozen them but instead I baked, again.
Some for the neighbors and some for the free pantry.
When I went to deposit food on the shelves this morning there was a group of older folks eating breakfast while they sat together at the nearby picnic table. They had heated water on the barbecue grill to make tea. We leave tea bags and instant coffee there every day.
I promised that the tomorrow morning breakfast offering would include home baked muffins.
I will have to run them down there very early before my car goes in the shop.
A promise is a promise.
