"You can drive anywhere you like..." as they take away the super major highways owned by foreign adversaries and leave the ones bending the knee to USA national interests.

It seems incredibly logical from a state perspective. Sucks for users who can't choose to use a major highway without it being owned by an technofeudal oligarch. That statement holds true regardless of any platform. What were those blockchain people up to again?

Yeah exactly, although one a bit more against criticism. But all technofuedal oligarchs and the goats that prop them up are all narcissistic in a sense.
