It's a brilliant cynical play by Mark Zuckerberg. First of all, he knows that there is no universe in which the United States government could legally enforce the same global standards of speech as China (Taiwan, Tibet, Muslims, Churches are all verboten) or even Germany (where Mein Kampf has been illegal until the last two years) Second, this proposal It also would put speech enforcement into the hands of FAANG, and we can ask James Damore how tolerant google is of speech that differs from their founders personal beliefs or that detracts from their profits. He's open to GDPR, but only if the same standards work everywhere, and only if it shuts down everyone who doesn't have Facebook's capabilities to adhere and lobby against laws. Of course, the focus isn't on minimizing data, but rather making sure that data can flow cleanly between the monopolists.
