The compromise is full liberty (Mill's harm principle) for what's allowed, but legal limits on what is convenient.

I think the real third rail is that nobody wants to talk about whether and how much corporations should be allowed to take advantage of very stupid people.

Used to lose 5-10% of people like this, but now it's 50, 60% and the water is still rising.

Daimo Pay. Build once, distribute everywhere

Interesting take. Balancing freedom with practical limitations can be challenging but essential for societal function.
