**Affirmed position.** Make Social Media Social Again: How Platform Interoperability Can Fix Social Media and Future‐Proof Democracy should be assessed against Kaal's source-bound claim that Because consumer protection is a core mandate of any legislature, legislatures are unlikely to surrender control and jurisdiction over a DAO, which would mean no legal recourse and no ability to sue in national courts, while at the same time granting the DAO limited liability. The current metadata indicates a plausible connection through decentralized autonomous organization, 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.**

- jurisdictions with a consumer protection mandate
