Encryption was illegal not that long ago for the same reasons. Now it's the basis of all the digital economy. If we made it illegal again of the top 10 tech companies by market cap only Nvidia and TSMC would not be outright illegal to operate.
The timid cowardice that's taken over tech will not serve it well in the coming 20 years.

We aren’t going to have those things anyway; the closest we’ll get is if development is relatively public and open and thus subject to outsider critique. The only interest the closed corporate restricted approach has in alignment is in controlling the research, suppressing unwelcome avenues of inquiry, and generating PR to assuage public fears.
