Not sure we should stretch the car analogy too far, but you're right
about rules and regulations. Most people can be relied on to be
considerate, but that one percent of assholes ruin it for everyone.
From where I'm standing that one percent is basically American big
tech. Problem is, we have traffic lights, stop signs, speed limits,
and highway cops patrolling, but the big US corporations just drive
like assholes and get away with it anyway. In fact they're more like
terrorists that drive a truck into a crowd of people, and we all stand
around helplessly and wail... "what can be done?!"
Now, if this was a proper American tale, there would be a Blues
Brothers style 500 car chase, and at the last moment, just as the
bigtechmobile is about to jump the unfinished bridge Dukes of Hazard
style, Bruce Willis swoops down in an Apache attack helicopter and
blows them off the map!
oops I think I've stretched the car analogy too far.
