I’m guessing that, like GDPR in the EU, it will apply to any and all social media website on the internet, but for practical reasons, can’t really be enforced outside of the legislating authorities’ jurisdiction.

The legislation specifically gives the Act extra-territorial powers to enforce the ban against foreign websites.

Reddit is specifically targetted ; it will definitely include Lemmy.
