Comment on Mississippi's age assurance law puts decentralized social networks to the test

yup but at least then they would be leading the charge for people to leave their state.
Psssshhhh!!! Get outta here with that solid logic, and critical thinking! We don’t use reasoning in this country! We just cry and scream until everybody ELSE caves to the demands!

But the question is, what would be a reasonable legal principle for preventing such laws generally? Mississippi is going to pass bullshit laws, but it shouldn’t be possible for the jurisdiction of any state to be the entire internet.

Or what about fireworks. They’re not legal in all states, but you can travel to another state and buy them with an ID from a state where they are illegal. Airguns are considered real guns in NJ and require a permit, but you can drive to PA and buy them, they don’t need to make sure that they’re legal in your state.
