Just at a guess, I guess what is "missing" is the private security, and the private legal representation, both paid handsomely to deploy various degrees of "fuck you up" upon command.
Even if you are "in the right", as a normal citizen, it's kind of hard to take a beating -- physical or legal. Which, in both cases, also means financial -- against very deep pockets.
P.S. Kholsa's position is simple the modern, tech baron version of "might is right". Nothing new in that. Laws and rights have always been "for sale" to varying degrees.
Which is why some people support stronger public institutions, as a counter-measure to outsized private power.
P.P.S. And one of the essential tricks in THAT, is to keep those public institutions accountable.
