What, like the 20-year old telnetd vulnerability was "shallow"? Do not underestimate the opponent. Embedding nasties in seemingly-innocent bits of legislation is what politicians are good at. This was the "brute force" attempt.

That's exactly what I was thinking of as what they will do given "more time". But I still expect them to try a much more traditional "business as usual" first at least a couple of times, before they realize that's going to be necessary. That's way harder than what they do now, which they are used to working very well.
