    Dear Citizen, we will require all manufacturers to comply with non-essential guidelines, but all important stuff are subject to the fact that you are our bitch and need to vow to your benefactor, the “government” which is Groupon for corpos.

      Pretty sure some of the stuff he’s talking about are consumer issues too…fully documenting all the hardware lets people other than the original manufacturer provide support to the hardware without the use of reverse engineering.

      Plus there’s a lot of non-essential stuff the government makes companies do already, because if they didn’t the companies would just exploit people. Food and Drugs being two big ones.
