Facebook has threatened to sue Mark Zuckerberg, an Israeli entrepreneur who recently took the social network founder’s name. The new Zuckerberg, born Rotem Guez, legally changed his name Dec. 7.

Every party in this case is ridiculous.

However, it’s really interesting to see Facebook butt up against government regulations as they outgrow a state-based context. In the future, legally changing your name or other bureaucratic filings might be immaterial within a global, cross-government social network. And that might be the one that matters.

Is this post nationalism?
