> Do we need to rethink the idea of global social media platforms? Maybe even the idea of a global internet. Yes. > If countries like Brazil or India want to have everything censored They aren't even the worst. The biggest advocates of censorship on american social media is europe, canada, israel, etc. > create some subsidiary application solely for people within each of those countries Or maybe brazil or india should outright ban these platforms and create their own? These countries have their own national tv stations, newspapers, etc? Why don't they have their own twitter, facebook, etc? If media essentially controls who you vote for, shouldn't india, brazil and every democracy control their own media? Seems to me that a foreign nation controlling so much of your social media is a direct threat to your democracy. Besides, if we continue on this path of global social media, we would have to censor everything everyone finds offensive. It would be the tyranny of the offended. The worst kind of tyranny.
