But we all know markets aren’t rational, I’m unconvinced we shouldn’t step in… if I started selling anthrax the government would try to stop me. This product might malfunction and show people how to make said anthrax which would be bad. Same with most things, everyone thinks this is a bubble. I think we should actually just put a cap on how much hardware data centres can buy per year, that would be the sensible solution tbh.

Doing so by blocking you from going public while doing nothing about selling anthrax would be at approximate the level of this proposal's dumbness.

Imagine if legislators had, in the 1980s, limited computer memory to 640 KB [1]?
