I think the problem here is that government departments are not the only entities consuming the data. Private companies also deal with company names too. So at this point it's either:

- somehow ensure all software is bug free (at least when processing company names)

- outlawing things

- just let it happen

The first option isn't that far away from hacking the matrix and making buggy software physically impossible. The second option seems to be better than the third.

That's actually a really good point.
