    I’m a little surprised that most countries don’t have laws that make it a crime for non-citizens or people outside their country to influence elections. For any country, but the biggest and wealthiest, this seems like an obvious thing. Nobody wants their larger richer neighbor coming and interfering with their elections.

    If you consider Twitter like a newspaper or other media outlet, then the owner of the media outlet using Twitter’s megaphone should violate all sorts of laws. At least that would be my expectation…
