Yeah, I hate all those terrible regulations that keep people from burning alive in their homes too. Godddamn goverment saving lives, it's so slightly annoying.

Wait. Wasn't there a whole group of people who thought this way recently? Wasn't it called the Department of Government Efficiency? Wasn't it led by a rich tech bro who wants to live on Mars? Didn't they get disbanded because it was a bunch of armchair experts who knew nothing about government and couldn't make anything efficient?

Maybe you want to apply to whatever they're working on next?

What regulations would you suggest would be the software equivalent of a fire code?

What kind of penalties would apply for not meeting these regulations?

Who would be responsible for enforcement? Do you propose this should apply internationally? Or just to software written in a specific region? Or is the location of where software is hosted (or the headquarters of the company operating the hardware) a better target for legislation?
