Do you think that laws don’t apply to instance owners? Why?
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.
You act like it’s only Mississippi, a single state, that is going to be pushing these same laws. You’re in for a rough awakening.
