Selective enforcement is a tyranny generator. How about the law doesn’t exist if it doesn’t actually make sense?

Selective enforcement is a tyranny generator.
How about the law doesn’t exist if it doesn’t actually make sense?
- some_random 2mo agoSelective enforcement is just tyranny, but what I think they were getting at is a minimum size enshrined in law. I don't think it's a great idea, really highlights how arbitrary this all is and presents a risk of advantaging the worst actors more than real makers, but it's a valid way forward.
- leros 2mo agoLaws like this are a good idea but its too burdensome for small companies so it cripples innovations and small businesses. Only applying it to larger companies let's it apply to only the companies who have the largest impact and also can afford compliance, while not stifling small businesses. Not perfect but I think it's a decent tradeoff.

- mmmpetrichor 2mo agothere are many federal laws in the US (and im sure other countries) that only apply when your company reaches a certain size. This is the most obvious way to balance regulatory burden on new companies while still enforcing regulations on large companies that have enough resources to comply.
