I came in a little hot in that comment, and pushed some of the arguments to their extreme, so I want to apologise for that.
But I really appreciate the response! It's a nice breath of fresh air when someone responds like you did, especially when my comment was a lot more aggressive.
There's not going to be an easy solution for this kind of stuff, but at the end of the day I feel it's a necessary evil, very similar to how many countries deal with freedoms or natural rights.
If we err on the side of giving people choice, that means that more bad actors will be able to hurt than if we didn't. But I feel that freedom is something to be protected, and it is worth the added work and risk of allowing bad actors to get a foothold.
No need to apologize! You didn't come across as "aggressive". Your comment made me think and that is important. Taking arguments to their extremes helps sometimes to get a discussion really going...
