When you break a law, it doesn't magically summon an LEO and judge to catch you in the act and give you the proper penalty, so words in a code is not a deterrent. The deterrent is knowing someone will hunt you down, getting thrown in jail, it's fines that hurt your bottom line.
Yes, our society places a premium on policing break ins very harshly. Police have huge budgets for street crime & judges have harsh penalties available to them. White collar crime, like financial crime or breaking what little privacy protections is on the books? Not so much... So, again, you can't just make a law. You also have to have groups empowered to enforce the law and dole out punishments heavy enough to act as a deterrent.
The hyperscalers are a notable exception to that but the larger a company is the more likely systemic illegal practices are to get exposed.
we plebs, who buy their frontier stuff?, just don't know any better.. and then one day, after living in the frontier/futureland sufficiently, it clicks, we recognize we are being had..
then we organize, we get politicians to fight back the tide of abuse..
and it's our time to correct things, make the abuse illegal..
good luck fellow plebs..
knowing how the system is rigged in so many dimensions, i don't have much hope..
but we can dream right?
>make a new law
>they just move elsewhere
how??? tell me
On the other hand, I think a great firewall would be useful to the US and especially the EU, to be able to enforce their laws even better.
this is only works if your business located in EU, no one stop EU people visit US site and still get tracked
