International regulations on social media would be interesting. I guess US and China won’t agree on what is fake news.

Federation is going to become necessary. Like with email, or with Matrix chat.

Different jurisdictions are going to have laws so divergent that a single platform won't be allowed to operate globally anymore.

So we'll have to have many different providers that can all talk to each other.

Maybe this will be mandated by fiat. Or maybe it will just evolve naturally in response to incentives.

They don't have to agree. US-based Google seems OK serving customers from China under the terms of Chinese laws.

Most Google services are blocked in China.
