2008 and the current mess should show you how rules can be suspended, bent or even broken on a whim.
Trump et. al. have two trillion USD to "give away" with few to no controls. The rules are for you, to give you comfort. They are not for them.
And again, why the rush. Look at the EU - one thing became another over time. Look at Nafta - one thing became another over time. Look at post 9/11 security laws - one thing became another over time. Even now via the discount window free money is fed into the banking system, basically rewarding people with free money (your money) for almost collapsing the financial system.
Google started as the most free thinking company out there. If would "always be free" and it would not "commercialize" search. Good solid "dijkstra-esque" tex-ian principles. Now they are one of the largest purveyors of surveillance on the planet.
Make advancements but do it at a slower pace.
Why give people who have shown that they cannot be trusted all this additional power?
To coin a phrase it is "government G-SIMP'ing"
. They byatch slap you over and over again and yet you keep running back for more
