        It can’t stop the usage, it can raise the cost of doing so, by bringing in legal risk of operations operating in a public way. It can create precedence that can be built upon by other parts.

        Politics and law move slower than and behind the things it attempts to regulate by design. Which is good, the atlernative is a surveilance state! But it definitely can arrange itself to punish or raise the risk profile of doing something in a certain patterned way.

        look just because there’s whole generations that only learned house construction by Sims wall placement and emotional conveyance by floating diamonds doesn’t mean they definitely think regulatory controls work by clicking the sparkly wand button to apply new society settings!
