  1.  @JackDespero  Yeah, sell your freedom for a bit of security, be a slave but not try to sell that stinky fish to other people.

  2.  @Boomras1  If there are "rules" defined by some bullshit bureaucrats we are not alking about a free market.

  3. Every damn regulation trying to cram more and more bureaucracy on top of an area that is largely free (like software development) will inevitably use the utterly threadbare and blatant excuse of doing this to "increase security", and people will sell themselves out for this single empty word.

  5.  @d3stinYwOw  Freedom should even extend to selling asbestos, which doesn't mean that the consequences of its misuse shouldn't be legally penalized. I think even you could agree with me on that. If you're using asbestos in your products and people are unaware of this and its health risks, you're clearly an aggressor and potentially a vile murderer, and it makes total sense for you to be stopped. Now if you sell asbestos making its risks clear, what exactly is the problem? I believe even you should be able to acknowledge that scientific research, for example to make the material safe, depends on the accessibility of this material in some case, and that restricting the use of something is restricting possible innovations that may arise from it and also restricting even the use in preventing misuse of this material (like for example encouraging biological organisms to find ways to solve diseases caused by asbestos). Accountability should be tied to real cases and not to society as a whole. Finally, I'm not saying it's "black and white", I'm saying that this specific issue is a clear problem, which yes can potentially bring more safety in the long term but at the same time, can destroy or cause irreversible damage in the area of software development and free software. These are measures that are made by people who have no idea how the things we do work and yet still want to screw everyone over and use the excuse of "increasing our security". Just look at measures like the UK's "Online Safety Act" (and similar measures that have been proposed over the years in the US itself) to know that not all the security in the world is worth some things, even though it's not all "black and white".
