Welcome, all of you who are finally coming to the realization that over-regulation is real, and a real problem.

[-] floofloof@lemmy.ca 3 points 9 hours ago

Overregulation and underregulation are both problematic, so it's not an easy thing to get right. But sometimes you get the impression a regulation is all agenda and very little thought (e.g. this one in California, and the FCC's recent banning of foreign-made home routers).

@floofloof I can only conclude that Newsom secretly does not want to be potus...

Can you motherfuckers stop passing these shitty laws that make the whole world worse??? Has a single good tech-oriented bill come from the USA per 10 other terrible bills?

I'm not US based and my country is always too late to anything to implement something like this, but what the fuck is happening in the US with all this stupid regulations?

The wealthy are trying to make a final power grab and pivot us into authoritarianism, but they need to move all the pieces into place before they can make it final.

I suspect it just indicates the excessive power of corporate lobbyists.

This will likely not pass, as, at least, it's against the first amendment.

[-] ParlimentOfDoom@piefed.zip 1 points 1 day ago

The first amendment does not cover the right to manufacture arms.

That would be the second. The first would cover the right to share information about building your own uncensored 3d printer and designs and plans for legal arms.
