The devil on my left shoulder wants to laugh at L3 for their hypocrisy.

The angle on my right shoulder wants to congratulate a "tier one" (whatever the F that means) provider for finally admitting, in writing, in public, from a lawyer, what the rest of us have known for decades.

In the middle is me being afraid of the gov't actually regulating something that _is_ a problem, but because they are the gov't, doing it in a way that will cause more issues than it solves. :-(
