Not really - i would prefer that any policy change that _could_ be utilized in the future to enable future draconian changes be killed before it takes root.

I want a system, like type safety, to guarantee that XYZ cannot be possible, rather than rely on civil jurisprudence and active opposition to prevent it. We don't have that today, but i like to have it.



So you want to ship technical means that prohibit companies from shipping products that limit what you can do with them?

It’s kind of self-defeating, isn’t it? Why would I adopt your standard when it limits what I can build?
