My biggest issue is that it seems like regulations are being wielded as weapons against those that aren't in the good graces of the government for whatever reason. Companies have gotten crucified for false advertising claims and Tesla seems untouchable. People go to jail over securities fraud and Musk gets a slap on the wrist and is mouthing off on TV the next month. He's supposed to have a twitter sitter right now per his securities fraud agreement, would any reasonable lawyer have allowed him to tweet about gamestop or dogecoin?
