In contrast with most of the comments, I strongly support this change. Social media has been a tool for radicalization, and this is a potential solution worth trying. Will simply informing people that they're drifting beyond the Overton window could put a damper on the radicalization? I don't know, but I certainly hope so.

Yeah, I'm thinking it can only produce further radicalization.
