Salient excerpts:

- whether they know it or not, the fundamental problem facing today’s tech exec is the problem of governance.

- Corporations do not want to legislate, let alone enforce, more of humanity’s behavior than they need to. They have better things to do. The universe isn’t going to dent itself. But because they are outpacing traditional governments in their ability to predict & shape human behavior, they walk right into stupidly impossible situations over and over again.

- The problem of governance arises wherever “move fast and break things” runs right into an older saying: “you broke it, you bought it”.
