With the TikTok bill in the U.S. and DMA in the EU it feels like the uniformity of the internet is breaking up. Before it was mainly China that had it's own separate ecosystem, but there was not that much interaction between China and the rest of the world anyways. But now a rift is also opening up between the U.S. internet and the EU internet. There is no longer one internet.

It was a figure of speech, not a literal fragmentation of the internet. But of course, if the rules of the internet are diverging enough over different jurisdictions, the effects are the same.
