We live in a different world to the mid-late 2010s. For better or worse, I'm fairly confident Musk and Zuckerberg will have input on US trade policy on these issues.

Input, yes.
May even be able to get the US to threaten a trade war or to leave NATO if they can't rake in the advertising dollars.
But I think the former would be seen as Trump being Trump and the latter as a bluff, and in both cases it would be reason to more permanently disentangle the UK economy from the US economy and defence relationship than to dry away the crocodile tears of multibillonaires.
McDonalds is likely to be responsible for the contents in that regard I'd presume (esp since they do own the trademark). This is what I meant by corporations registered in the UK.
In a similar vein gambling content targeted at kids would have a similar approach. Keep in mind the businesses still need to be able to sell in the UK.
