HP printers try to send data back to HP about your devices and what you print

Or? Is it in theory possible that your preception of reality is off?

Government regulation of the net (aka speech) is a non-starter, so the people who think "insert rule" fixes something are forced to rebrand it to "net betterness". More than half of the general public is wise to these techniques.

What "pragmatic" law do you have in mind?

Government regulation of businesses that happen to have websites (aka 'regulation of the net') is already reality. Pretty far from a "non-starter"

Surely you have atleast a sketch of the law in mind?
