Regulate it because it's being abused, and hold the abusers accountable, yeah.

I always see the names of the models being boogey-manned, but we only ever see the names of the people behind the big, seemingly untouchable ones.

"Look at this scary model" vs "Look at this person being a dick"

We're being told what to be afraid of and not who is responsible for it, because fear sells and we can't do anything with it.

Just my perception, of course.
