    I would say just nationalize it but tbh it sucks, between reddit and twitter im surprised there aren’t enough bot accounts to cause some sort of digital singularity and not the kind the nerds want

    Edit: the X part made me think you were talking about twitter

        Are you saying it’s not possible to nationalize a foreign company when that’s literally why iran exists today as an Islamic republic (attempting to nationalize the AIOC, now British petroleum)

        Nationalizing tech shit is even easier because intellectual property is fake bullshit and there’s no need to possess physical infrastructure

          Twitters servers are in the US. What exactly do you plan to nationalise, digital infrastructure is not the same as an oil well in your borders.

          What are you going to do, send a strongly worded letter to the US saying “we demand you give us your source code and complete infrastructure setup so that we can duplicate it here”?
