Big brain tech dude got yet another clueless take over at HackerNews etc? Here's the place to vent. Orange site, VC foolishness, all welcome.

This is not debate club. Unless it’s amusing debate.

the FCC wants to BAN cloned phone voices. I don't see anything in here about a plan for actually stopping them

describe the mechanism that the FCC would use to stop cloned phone voices

It can't stop the usage, it can raise the cost of doing so, by bringing in legal risk of operations operating in a public way. It can create precedence that can be built upon by other parts.

Politics and law move slower than and behind the things it attempts to regulate by design. Which is good, the atlernative is a surveilance state! But it definitely can arrange itself to punish or raise the risk profile of doing something in a certain patterned way.

look just because there’s whole generations that only learned house construction by Sims wall placement and emotional conveyance by floating diamonds doesn’t mean they definitely think regulatory controls work by clicking the sparkly wand button to apply new society settings!
