From the abstract: "Who rules Facebookistan? Who makes the rules that govern
the way a tenth of humanity connects on the Internet? The United States,
France, China, or Mark Zuckerberg? Facebook represents a type of multinational
corporation new to the world stage — one that raises issues different than
those raised by earlier generations of multinational corporations. A review of
international controversies involving Facebook reveals that Facebook has
changed some of its policies as a result of pressures from governments around
the world, while resisting other pressures. At the same time, Facebook has
itself helped spur changes in the law, most evidently in helping undermine
repressive governments. Ultimately, this Article finds that regulatory power
is, de facto, dispersed across a wide array of international actors."
