no one demands a moratorium on pens and pencils because someone might write illegal squiggles with them. we simply accept the fact that 0.0001% of squiggles will be illegal, harmful, hateful, unethical, unsafe, etc, so we can use the pen and pencil tech to write the other 99.9999% of squiggles.

the current lobbying and legislating efforts seek to outlaw pens and pencils produced by anyone but a handful of US corporation, who only let you use their pens and pencils if you let them look over your shoulder while you write your squiggles.
