Why don't they care?

Because the status quo works for them. Anything else is a you problem.

This answer applies to a broad swath of topics.

I mean, yes. But I was trying to get at why it works and what would be needed to change the status quo. Tbh if Facebook or Twitter could be prosecuted for their role in harm to children or sex trafficking, schools would very quickly be ready for change.

what would be needed to change the status quo.

One of the following:

widespread media literacy
competent understanding of technology
a gun

I’ve recently accepted that the vast majority of people who use technology daily will never question or understand how it works, but will act as if it is indispensable, omniscient, and impenetrable.
