Meh, I'm less concerned with disagreement (or the words used) than I am with deflection. To be clear, and brief, I am not saying one approach to law is better than another (though I too have my preferences and of course corruption anecdata abound). In this case, I think neither legal approach is preferable with such a large statute. But if we are resigned to this option, one could argue that the size/scope of the legislation can only happen with vagueness and trust. In general I think we could arrive at a GDPR-level statutes (at a global level no less) after working up to it. And I don't believe the regulatory bodies' failures themselves justify doubling down on those same failure-causers. I could talk about my suggestions for days, but in general a good set of first steps would be simple transparency requirements for specific uses and tangible enforcement.

Thank you for bringing this up. I never knew PB law was a thing. I thought it was just poorly written. Being a yank, I just assumed they forgot the corner cases. I am anti authoritarian by nature so I tend to view authorities as Djinn that must be tightly constrained by wording lest they find a way to misbehave. I would have thought PB would have a higher risk of regulatory capture and corruption of regulators than RB. What is a small business owner's recourse if a regulation is being selectively enforced to favor a competitor? To they need to find funds to retain legal representation? What if the competitor is much larger?

Edit: I realized this might sound passive aggressive. I like the idea of human judgement in regulation, but I really want to know what checks are commonly used to account for all actors involved potentially being malicious.
