This is true, but if this goes through, I imagine that the next step for safety fascists will be to require developer licensing and insurance like general contractors have. And after that, expensive audits, etc, until independent developers are shut out completely.

I don’t know if I agree, but we are very much in a world where that would make sense.

Why do drug companies deserve justice for developing and pushing heroin-analogues, but not tech companies?

Our work has real consequences.
