I have no idea.
If you're thinking of how to protect the fediverse, my solution (which I intend to use if I am kicked off mainstream social media because of this or other regulations in the UK) is to run my own server, only allowing people I know personally to have accounts on that server, and federating with other servers. Federation may be a grey area in this law - it'll be interesting to see how that plays out, if it ever goes to court.
- Zak 2y agoI wasn't thinking only of the Fediverse, but the same concern certainly would apply to a Fediverse server, an independent forum, a wiki, etc....
