In my understanding, the “cease and desist” letter from χwitter against XCancel and Nitter is a warning to stop copyright infringement based on US-Law. The US-Law has no effect on most parts of the world. Why cant we just ignore it altogether? I understand that it will be problematic for US- Citizen but everyone else just have to obey their own countries jurisdiction.
Is there a point in the Internets infrastructure that the USA has enough leverage on to stop it anyway? Or am i downplaying the Influence of US Law on judicial decisions in other countries?
Its because the US strongarmed its “allies” into being clients of their software and copyright laws. I wish Europe would tell them where to stick it so we can have a short, sharp break from US bigtech and their terrorist government.
