They lazy posted. No point, assumptions made, no matter what you say, they will say something else.

Troll shit.

People who have points will provide context.

That said, i wonder if this is related to this, a movie Gamers Nexus is working on (intro video below), on illegal AI chips and who knows what and who is involved. They have also been trying to get our government on the record, so I wonder if this report is a response of sorts.

With that said, we all know those with power, gain in wealth. Meaning, if someone knows about shipments being tagged, they have information to sell. Since corruption is the name of the game of our new government, Im sure there will be problems. Also, Im looking forward to GNs movie they are releasing in 2 days based on this whole thing.

For adaptation into the USA for example, there needs to be railroad crossing guards that will prevent people from suicide into these things, or even disrupting tracks.
As these are current problems here, Im wondering how those will be mitigated without elevating the entire system.
I, personally, would prefer the Japanese version, as safety is better. And its not like tunnel sound is specific to one train track or levitation style.
So mix and match seems best.

In the USA at least, you dont have to talk to them, or cooperate.4th amendment protects you against unlawful searches. 5th allows you to not talk to a cop if under suspicion. If its "cordial" you can tell them you dont want to talk.

Might they overreach? Sure. But use your rights or lose your rights.

That is the difference, the regulatory agencies.

US used to have the best one, but has since capitulated to corporate greed through government defunding and increased concern for the dollar over lives.

EU could also enforce these things on Boeing, but they relied on the US to do the right thing I think. That has likely shifted.
If you watch Airplane disasters on... yeah I know, Paramount+, you can see a broad history of air related disasters that lead to change, then to suggestions which got more people killed until it was a change.
Oversight is required in capitalism. We know this from the 1900s and large factories that had open machines that would often sever an armor or worse...body to safety measures we have today. Dummies want to make fun of OSHA, they are likely alive because of OSHA.

"same side of the coin" is a weird way to normalize it.

We all know thats a fallacious point. So, you excusing it tells everyone you are for the thing you are claiming to not like.

This is literally a "if they jump off a bridge..." school mentality, and you have yet to figure out why following a lemming off the bridge is not conducive to healthy living.
