Newspapers, magazines, TV, film, movies, broadcasts are all regulated nationally and internationally

The same should be done for corporate social media companies who basically deliver all or most news content and information to people everywhere today.

The current state of the world is like being in the 1900s and only having six major newspapers in the world owned by big corporations and none of the content they publish or share is regulated or controlled.

How would this affect the big players? Like MS -you buy from the European branch and they use buy from US. So hitting them with tariffs would hurt MS more than their customers?

I understand they will raise prices, but its not like with physical goods where the same item is resold. They use other ways to transfer money because tax
