Between this and the UK Online Safety Bill, how are people meant to keep track?

Launch a small website and commit a felony in 7 states and 13 countries.

I wouldn't have known about the Mississippi bill unless I'd read this. How are we have to know?

Check your local laws and make sure never to travel outside your current state.

States should come together with their neighboring states to start passing identical model legislation for this sort of stuff, if we don’t have unity across the country. It could be easy and voluntary for the states to do.

The US doesn’t have 50 different cultures with totally different values, but probably has like… 7.

Yes! Make a union of states! How should we call that? States Union... Union of States... United States! Yeah, that should work.

The US would make a lot more sense if it split up between two or three different countries. There's a lot of stuff in US politics which people feel strongest about but are absolutely mutually exclusive.

I think it's going to happen one way or another and the most peaceful way to do it would be sooner rather than later.

We’re better as one country, we just need a France or Germany sized organizational unit that can do interesting projects but is still small enough to be agile.
