    You would go after the platforms. Make it more expensive to resist than to cooperate, and the big ones will roll over… you might even add in a carrot by giving them some legal protections or promises of data purchasing contracts

    From there you make examples of smaller sites that start to gain traction, and developers will get scared to do otherwise

    I don’t think it could happen now, but it’s certainly achievable. Especially since large platforms like the idea - it makes their data much more valuable and gives them more control.

    After a couple years of getting the public ready for the idea? It’s entirely possible unfortunately
