Well yeah, our leaders don't care nearly as much if you go and do shady shit for other leaders as they do about you exposing their own shady shit to the general population. Don't assume the US government is ever going to act in good faith about this kind of stuff.

Now imagine what's going to be possible in Australia with their compulsory surveillance laws...

Though, I wouldn't be super surprised if they banned people they forced to implement exploits from leaving country =X

I take a more pessimistic view. We should think that all this is already being done, just not acknowledged.

What do you expect the non-competes to accomplish, exactly? Thanks, California.
