That wouldn't cut it.

The linked summary is pretty explicit about the four things governing online behavior, and not society overall. Online behavior is not society.

The first point of the four relates to networking infrastructure. Is parenting part of society? If so, what does networking infrastructure have to do with parenting?

The parallel of network infrastructure is societal infrastructure: cities, roads, property rights, etc.
