I don’t think it is a threat. Facebook just rather cut Europe off than to give judicial advantages that could work elsewhere in the world. If the Terms of Service are more pro-user in Europe, everyone else in the world would want that too.

Facebook just doesn’t have the market value to threaten anybody. It’s just software, and there are alternatives out there. Europe could just migrate to vk, minds or diaspora.

If Matrix for healthcare in Germany is anything to go by, a Fediverse migration could be amazing.

Or Europe could wake up and migrate to the fediverse instead of closed shit like VK or Minds.
