As for the law "catching up with" federation sites, I don't see that happening unless Mastodon and Lemmy start creating massive lobbying arms.

Forgot that's how America worked.

In the UK, you could just keep making noise until a member of parliament gets interested and mentions it once

So how does UK law handle federation?

No clue. Online Safety Act is a bin fire

OSA means the instances that are federated are required to remove it, but also because they failed to remove it and/or failed to regulate ages and the day of the week and feed the cat they are guilty

Maybe you should make some noise until an MP cleans up the issue.

I'm too lazy. My MP made a bluesky account but abandoned it. Sad!
