X’s mandatory country labels shattered user trust and triggered what I call a “migration death spiral.” Drawing on interviews across four continents, this episode uses tech policy, psychology, and platform economics to explain why a single forced feature can destroy safety, silence experts, and hollow out real-time discourse. We analyze regulatory risks, user behavior shifts, and the appeal of decentralized alternatives.

What We'll Discuss:
- 🧠 Emotional backlash and user rage
- 🔒 Privacy vs. monetization tensions
- 🌍 Regional legal and safety impacts
- 🔁 Migration and self-censorship spiral
- 🛠️ Decentralized alternatives (Mastodon, Bluesky)
- 💡 Practical steps for users and platforms
