2022-04-23 16:11:06 +0000 UTCAlso dont agree thst governments will be the primary driver behind splintering. As you said, Facebook has already been a major driver for this in southeast Asia, and we're only seeing the baby steps of Web3.0 which might really speed up corporate walls between user bases.

2022-04-23 08:14:34 +0000 UTCHang on now, what evidence do you have for splintered services within the EU? GDPR and these other initiatives were created with the purpose to have a legal framework to protect users privacy as well as clear restrictions for domestic and international corporatist interests. The right to be forgotten is another example of this. I don't agree that this is a catalyst of splintering, rather that this is a compromise between corporatist and individual freedoms.
