Social is not like a choice between Linux distributions. Social is something more foundational to human nature.

Having a shared social protocol is similar to when the railroads became the same and could work with anyone's trains.

Peter Wang wants gov't regulators to enforce ATProto user-intent.

The same person (Peter Wang) is talking about licensing — i.e., requiring gov't permission.

Rabble ( @rabble ) talking about how — if you had someone else's PDS user-data on your phone, German regulation would require you to file paperwork every single time you cross a German state line. And, if you don't, the whole social-media is illegal under German GDPR law.
