Rules will make you safe, let's get more rules!!
In fact, how about you can't use a computer anymore because you (yes you!) don't know enough to be absolutely, positively 100% certain you won't loose your identity, catch a virus, or vote for the wrong party.
Oh yeah, and since you don't really know how to drive, there goes your car (BTW, we know that you speed every day - the fines just exceeded your tax bill, sorry!)
And since you don't know how to eat, here's a feeding tube, it will save on medical insurance costs.
Frankly, I think we have too many rules.
How about drop a bunch of the rules, learn how to use stuff, and own up that if it bites you back, maybe it's because your usage exceeded your understanding.
Feel free to flame away. I'm responsible for my actions.
