In Twitter's case, for starters, the time they heavily incentivized sharing phone numbers with them and then used that information to accidentally build an open phone number harvester.

I think Twitter(and other social media) genuinely makes people's mental health worse. We have coined terms like "doomscrolling" and have studies to evidence that Instagram has a negative effect on the psychological wellbeing of teenage girls. I think that this can arguably fall into the category of "damage".
