Having built remote healthcare five years prior to Covid under HIPAA where you have an interdisciplinary team on the coach side and a chronically ill and vulnerable patient on the iPad side, who frequently have little to no mental model of what these "tin screens and string tubes" are doing to help them, the notion that "sensible laws" exist to govern any of this is beyond me. The chasm of disconnects between legal, politics, and tech has only gotten broader and deeper over the last 30 years while we realize that there was a reason that innovators were talking about the need for interdisciplinary work in the 50s before we deprecated the humanities. "Things that don't scale" is a mild understatement from costs to benefits. It makes, "another day at the office" look like the Khumbu Ice-fall.
