For sure, Our Rules! It is just whether it can be yours and mine or must it be everyone's? Overarching rules can reverse the problem. Rules can be pistols too. Facebook's new rules have just fired a few shots.
Hopefully it's a bit of both depending on the context. And that the rules don't overreach beyond the context. I wonder what Karl Popper would have done with blockchains. Great post.
In some sense this is the challenge. Once we understand that the rules are fixed and enforcable, the question is, how did we arrive at the rules?
