Oh, definitely. That's a danger even for decentralized social media, because once a legal precedent is set, going after smaller operators could become easier (especially if global leaders all decide to try).

My claim isn't that it's bulletproof, just that I don't expect them to fold over a desire to keep their market share. That's the beginning and end of it.

Everyone should always remain vigilant, especially since privacy isn't a guarantee even among previously privacy-forward countries, anymore.
