If I was using a website called "Facebloke" that was well known to have been made and ran in the UK, I'd assume everyone on it was British.

    Ah, yes! The 3 billion Americans on Facebook!

    And why would you make that assumption? The internet has no borders, so it doesn’t really matter where or by whom something is made. Especially if the language is English, which has somewhere between 1.5 and 2 billion speakers worldwide.

    The internet has no borders

    Except that it actually does. See: China, North Korea, other fucked up governments that lock down the Internet for their people etc.
