    I’ve never seen CEOs work so hard to make the public aware of how dangerous and out of control their flagship product is. It makes me automatically assume they’re scheming about something else like regulatory capture to protect their market.

      It's got two purposes I think. One is the obvious regulatory capture. The other is edgelording, which gets a lot of attention and makes the product seem like it's more powerful than anything else.
