I think the offical position of most tech companies is to simply hand wave away any concerns the community(ies) may have about the legality, ethics, or anything else related to these disruptive technologies.
They want to push them as fast as possible into the market to make them impossible to economically remove "fixing" the issues later.
- denton-scratch 5y agoWhen I worked for $BIGCORP, someone pulled a chunk of GPL crypto code into our proprietary commmercial product. When the CTO found out, that GPL code was ejected from the project. I can't remember if we had to hunt down a replacement with a looser licence, or do a clean-room re-implementation, but it cost the company money to come into compliance.
