Just the tail wagging the dog. Little c conservatives, including neoliberal democrats, are chomping at the bit to prevent a non-US company from controlling social media because they’re using it as a tracking system via the NSA and for the dual purpose of propaganda since Facebook’s Chief Exo Officer is friendly and/or “very friendly” with several authoritarians in both major parties. They don’t want the possibility that another country could be doing this, even though there’s no evidence China is doing this, like Snowden unleashed for the USA. They could solve this with a law requiring data on US citizens be stored in the USA but then that’ll fuck up 5 eyes agreements for them and they can’t have that. Personally: burn them all down, I would be fine with this happening because we need to eliminate all social media, period.
