Legally compel the user of the machine to unlock it. Most people will fold immediately. No one is going to risk jail and a long legal battle for a job.

I think the spirit of the antitrust laws was to prevent the stifling of competition using monopoly power. Microsoft was definitely doing that when they threaten to charge OEMs more if they bundled Netscape Navigator - OEMs couldn’t say “no”

Based on a quick reading of a few health websites, there is a difference between drug tolerance, dependence, and addiction. Can tolerance result in withdrawal when dependence is present? Probably not? No one has mentioned it anyway. If so a

Automations like the automatic loom made clothes cheaper. Automation is responsible for a lot of our current quality of life. Do you really want to go back a 200+ years in QoL?
