The future of "fake news": Pepsi gets Facebook to censor jokes about plastic in its Kurkure corn puffs

So what if I, a US citizen, post on a US website that Kurkure contains plastic?
What if I post to an Indian website that Kurkure contains plastic?
What if I am an Indian citizen, and I post on BoingBoing that Kurkure contains plastic?
What if I am non-Indian, and BoingBoing is non-Indian, but my packets are routed through India? What if they could be routed through India, but aren’t? What if nobody knows just where my packets went?
What if Kurkure production is relocated to a factory in the US? Does the case have to be relitigated in US courts?

Nobody knew how complicated this series of tubes could be.
