> Ya no thanks. Top down regulation will just make startups less likely to enter new disruptive tech. The solution is choice, stop using Apple products and all their shadyness stops being an issue. And since people have demonstrated that they're not appropriately incentivized to stop, that's where the regulations snap in, which brings us back to where we started: there's a need for it. Solution could just be to regulate based on a tightly managed definition of age. Enable younger companies to have a bit more flexibility in determining their business model as controls slowly snap in as the company ages. There are some pretty clear loopholes that immediately come to mind (e.g. re-chartering the company every few years and transferring assets) that'll need to somehow be managed, but it should be enough to give companies runway to figure out how to disrupt and monetize while coming into compliance with consumer protections.
