I kind of have to agree with you. A true conservative perspective would seek to avoid creating mechanisms that control speech.

I'd be interested in stopping the "shaping" problem. Where, by algorithm, people only see things said to their specific demographic slice. Let everyone see what you're saying to everyone else, and let your speech be judged and argued against.

You can fool all of the people, most of the time, if they're always divided into "some of the people" all of the time.
