A "trial production" is a big step for these companies, even in China. There are many EVTOL companies out there that have been in heavy R&D for the past decade. China's regulatory regime moves a lot faster that the U.S. FAA and has started to issue commercial licenses. Several chinese companies are in the middle east already operating commercially.

They are waaaay ahead of the U.S. on this unfortunately.

T-Mobile Suffers Another Data Breach, Affecting 37 Million Accounts (cnet.com) 30
The nation's second-largest wireless carrier on Thursday disclosed that a "bad actor" took advantage of one of its application programming interfaces to gain data on "approximately 37 million current postpaid and prepaid customer accounts." CNET reports: In an 8K filing with the US Securities and Exchange Commission, the carrier says that it was able to trace and stop the "malicious activity" within a day of learning about it. T-Mobile also says that the API that was used does not allow for access to "any customer payment card information, Social Security numbers/tax IDs, driver's license or other government ID numbers, passwords/PINs or other financial account information." According to the filing, the carrier believes that the breach first occurred "on or around" Nov. 25, 2022. The carrier didn't learn that a "bad actor" was getting data from its systems until Jan. 5.
The company's API, however, did reveal other user information, including names, billing addresses, email addresses, phone numbers and birth dates of its customers, their T-Mobile account numbers, and information on which plan features they have with the carrier and the number of lines on their accounts. The company said in the SEC filing that it has "begun notifying customers whose information may have been obtained by the bad actor in accordance with applicable state and federal requirements." In 2021, T-Mobile suffered a data breach that exposed data of roughly 76.6 million people. "T-Mobile agreed to a $500 million settlement in the case in July, with $350 million going to settle customer claims from a class action lawsuit and $150 million going to upgrade its data protection system," adds CNET.

Its not perfect, but whats the alternative at this point? Only a small percentage of the population will receive a vaccine by next summer. If a population of concertgoers receive a combination of vaccines and time-limited tests, it may be enough to achieve "herd immunity" within an arena or club for a small amount of time.
The music industry needs _something_ to re-open at scale. Otherwise you can kiss that industry goodbye - i'm sure many could argue thats a good thing - but their artists (indie or not) will suffer nonetheless.

Certainly one person can't save a planet, but a US administration can set reasonable policy to put us in a direction to do so over the course of several decades.
The alternative is to let corporations drive themselves towards that goal, which would likely not happen due to profit motivations unless they're forward-looking enough to understand that a shitty climate will indeed impact their sales and supply chain.
Someone's gotta take the lead at some point...
