i suppose one alternative for flexible companies is to reincorporate in another jurisdiction. i'm not going to jump ship yet as i think this might end up like the SVB debacle, where everyone gets spooked and 'takes steps to mitigate', but then ends up saved at the last minute.

i actually am in favor of this law strangely enough (see my comment from 39 days ago: https://www.hackerneue.com/item?id=38148161) as if you read it it's quite rational and brings software into line with other industries. what i'm hoping is they end up assessing it with a revenue test where it only applies to large enterprises (100M and above). i should be safe for a little while at least hahaha! :)
