- smolder 8y agoSometimes you have to disincentivize behavior with prison time and things like that and then hope people don't do it. Trying to prevent some crimes ahead of time is a recipe for dystopia.

- YayamiOmate 8y agoAnd how do you enforce it? Hmm. Wait. Was that sarcasm?
- luxuryballs 8y agohow about we make it illegal to hack into systems unauthorized? oh wait...
