I'm sorry, but that's bullshit. This would have been the inverse of how a federal government is supposed to work. Rather than keeping individuals from being exploited at the state level, the exploiters are now at the federal level creating policy. They've had a plan in place since Trump's first term, and they don't want blue states interfering.
Governors of states are already looking to remove federal safety regulations to build small modular nuclear reactors in order to power these dumb fucking data centers they will likely be using to store very unethical surveillance data.
They are also planning to use AI to more efficiently build nuclear reactors. While removing federal oversight and safety regulations that have been in place for 50 years... What could possibly go wrong?
