Seasteading
This is one of those concepts that seems to come out of thinking of the law as similar to software.  It&#x27;s not, because software is run by computers while law is run by humans.<p>If you find a straightforward loophole in software, the computer running it will e.g. happily hand you information you&#x27;re not supposed to have[1].  If you find that kind of loophole in the law, then the humans running it will usually just tell you to go home.  They know that you know what they meant.<p>Laws can still have loopholes, but they are generally more subtle and complicated.  Fixing them often has obvious unintended consequences.  They&#x27;re more like speculative execution bugs[2] than buffer overruns.<p>[1]- <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;en.wikipedia.org&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;Heartbleed" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;en.wikipedia.org&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;Heartbleed</a><p>[2]- <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;en.wikipedia.org&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;Spectre_(security_vulnerability)" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;en.wikipedia.org&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;Spectre_(security_vulnerabilit...</a>
