Immune, no, insanely hard to police? Hell yeah. The thing with these laws is that it’s pretty easy for MS to sue Reddit and force them to comply. They have one centralized location to complain to. You can’t just call John Lemmy and have him comply. Would it be impossible for a state government to contact every single instance owner? maybe? But they’re not going to do it. Even if they made an attempt the instances hosted in other countries couldn’t give less shits about some southern US state.
Nostr is a whole other beast… it’s currently littered with things illegal in just about every country on the planet but that shit’s still there so I can’t imagine MS could do anything there either.
TLDR: Immune, no. Neigh impossible to enforce, yes.
you don’t know shit, which is why you’re so confident about it. the same reason 4chan isn’t worried about the age laws in the UK is the same reason Lemmy.world isn’t worried about what one counsin-fucking southern yeehaw backwater in the US says is illegal.
mississippi can’t do shit to Lemmy.world, even if they threw billions into lawsuits. which they can’t, because since republicans can’t balance a budget to save their lives, mississippi can’t even afford to give the people who are forced to live there clean drinking water. but here you are, thinking the state that’s last in education, in the “first world” nation that’s last in education , is going to start going around the world and making them listen to what some racist white descendant of plantation owners thinks is moral. fucking hilarious. I live in the US myself, and I’m not even going to listen to this law for my instance.
I love you just assume other states or countries give a shit what some red state thinks. the vast majority of fedi instances are not in mississippi, and the fines are not criminal charges to begin with. even if they were, good luck getting a blue state to extradite over something stupid like this.
missississpi made a law with no teeth, and fedi is going to ignore it like they should because there isn’t shit some backwards US state can do.
I don’t think you understand how laws work if you think the fediverse is immune to things like this.
I don’t think you understand how decentralization works if you think these laws could possibly be applied to the global internet.

They could very easily contact the owners of the Lemmy.world instance, for example, and there goes the biggest part of Lemmy.
You act like that is hard for them to do. It’s not.
Quick question, what country do you think Lemmy World is hosted in?
Those owners can tell them to fuck off too, since they’re not in US jurisdiction.
I don’t think you know how jurisdiction works.
I don’t think you do. In fact I know you don’t.

How are you so consistently wrong?
Do you think that laws don’t apply to instance owners? Why?
