People are fed up with grift.
There are two types of grift - pure cynical (crypto, vr, ai influencing & fake products)
- make me a medical system that I know can never get approved
- make me a business that will never ship a thing but get daddies tax bill halved
- make me code assistants that don't actually help
and pure mean: products that are exploitative or knowingly unethical.
- make me a mental health chatbot without giving a shit that it tells people to kill themselves
- make me camera that records other people and tells me their weaknesses
- make me kill bots that will stop protestors from saying stuff my boss doesn't want to hear
I think that people are really sick of grifters. I know I am.

A system which bans Elon Musk from ever speaking about self-driving cars sounds somewhat oppressive, but I would be inclined to give it a try since what we have now seems harmful and exploitative.
