Sure, it might seem appealing to do this now, but had this existed 20 years ago the convenience and pros of the Apple ecosystem wouldn't exist. You don't get the hardware+software experience that Apple provides. You'd get stuff like handoff (such as the handoff to Homepod functionality where you tap your phone to the top of it) maybe 10 years later when enough people finally get together to make a standard for it. Apple Silicon and the Rosetta translation layer never happens.

You make it sound like that is bad thing.

lol, what if china says no?

Now I have a company that cannot compete at the scale some chinese company can. OK so we close the border to imports from companies that are larger than our rules. When has that ever worked out?

Can the US (or Europe or Japan) compete with China today?

As with any system, it is just a matter of time before loopholes are found and exploited.

As with any policy, it will be up to the Government to use its three branches of power to determine and enforce their laws.

The government is just another layer of the system.

This sounds like some utopic conjecture, that honestly, wouldn’t solve the root problem

250 is a bit low, but otherwise, interesting idea

I never understood what the point of comments like this is. You know what you’re describing is never going to happen. So is it just philosophical musing about what the ideal society would look like?

What is the point of asking what the point of someone’s comment is because it seems fanciful and impractical? Good grief. They’re not hurting anyone.

Also there are a lot of things people could say “You know what you’re describing is never going to happen.” That did happen.

I’m not suggesting this one is. I don’t think so either, but it isn’t a very productive attitude.
