My point is that there is an age-old institution to solve this problem, called a court. We all participate in a social contract where the court's decisions about subjective matters have the force of law.
Where it gets weird is that Twitter also has an explicit user contract with the underlying USA social contract/courts as a dependency!

And that's how we get to the future world of Snow Crash.
