Once you kill a few people with your tech, they’ll demand the same regulations. It’s just that much consumer tech is crap that frankly couldn’t do the intended job, never mind hurt someone. You can compromise then identities of millions of people, but it’s just a PR thing for now. Try that same hacker ethos with an automated vehicle, or a medical device though. In time, as tech starts to live up to its promise, you’ll find your red tape. Sure, there are some bad regulations, but a lot are the result of someone dying or nearly dying. When the equivalent of a countrywide E. Coli outbreak is a techie problem, the rest will rapidly follow.
