'''Alternative social media platforms''' aim to challenge the societal control of Big Tech social media, such as [[Facebook]] and [[Twitter]].

These platforms tend to either be based in countries outside of the imperial core or are open source alternatives which tend to avoid any jurisdiction at all.
