> I think it's fine that I used the terms interchangeably but you can disagree if you want. Pick the term you prefer instead.

This is what you said most recently

> If tech companies blatantly break established law then of course they should be punished. However that's not what is happening most of the time, it's new regulations to constrain US tech.

This is what you said originally that makes a distinction between law and regulation.

I truly cannot understand what you mean if you cannot define these as separate definitions but treat them like they are separate definitions.

Please help me square your world view.

The only distinction I made was between established and new. It truly doesn't matter at all if I use both law and regulation even in the same sentence.

So your only problem is that the laws are new and regulating American corporate actions, not the laws itself?

What is your cutoff timeline for where it’s an established law vs a new regulation?
