This is the perfect example of how government is the least effective way to do most things.
Government lacks the constraints and risk aversion that smaller groups have - after all it can just pass new laws justifying it's poor choices, and government is largely immune to recrimination or liability.
(Also, fuck this age verification bullshit, of course).
Yet we've seen hundreds of examples of those smaller groups taking even bigger risks, and causing lots and lots of pain for their customers due to carelessness and greed.
But at least those smaller groups also take more money to do the same things the government does, and use those profits to take away control over the government from you and me!
Nevermind building on top of public tech and research funded by said government
