hehehe. yeah the due diligence document room. and lots of minified JavaScript UI code.

I love how companies can say complying with legislation would be overly burdensome. and how governments can make laws that have no technical reality. the interface between tech and law is pretty leaky and inefficient.

In theory a tech-competent judge could enforce laws to be closer to technical reality.

That's true. I suppose that's the idea. If that's the case, technical education should become a part of judgeship, if it's not already.

Yes. Though of course it would also help if the laws were written by tech-competent people.

(That doesn't mean that all people in parliament need to be competent. Most laws are written by specialists, not MPs.)
