Saying that people need to be shoved off a cliff is not elevating your position. In fact, these kind of statements are exactly what make me concerned about regulations and laws. One has already made your mind up about a group of people and now it's time to execute.

Such is the result of tech industry overreach. Had they adopted a more moderate stance, people would not be calling for them to be pushed off the proverbial cliff.

Yes the data gathering side of the tech industry is sounding like they’re selling menthol cigarettes to sick people at this point.

It’s a metaphor. You’re already teetering. All it takes is a little push and you’re hurtling to your demise.

If it is a metaphor, presumably you mean more like "your business is hurtling to its demise."
