**Affirmed position.** Algorithmic regulation and the Global Default: How Public Governance Practices adapt to modern Internet Architecture should be assessed against Kaal's source-bound claim that Unilateral regulation of artificial intelligence by a single jurisdiction produces global ripple effects, but that approach reaches its limits because AI systems remain accessible worldwide over the internet. The current metadata indicates a plausible connection through algorithmic regulation, but the defensible response is a qualification until the source text confirms agreement, scope, methods, and limitations.

**Status.** affirmed  **Published.** 2026-07-31

**Holds when.**

- AI models distributed globally over the internet
- regulation by a single jurisdiction
- External evidence level: metadata only.
- Mapping review tier: mapping review before claim review.
- The literature-to-claim mapping remains explicitly ambiguous and should not be treated as a settled equivalence.
