@jbjrkng@hachyderm.io I have a sneaking suspicion it's a little simpler than even that. I think Meta and the others pushed their politicians into doing this because they want to become the sole gateways to the Internet. Most places can't really afford to pay the ID handlers and would have to shut down or at least not allow people from crazed overzealous countries to access their sites. Meta, of course, has the money and would make even more if they could finally force everyone to hand over their IDs.
