- [2834531-028](https://wulfkaal.github.io/claims/2834531-028) [failure/argued] *(failure mode)* -- The post truth diagnosis is self defeating as a basis for regulation: if there is no objective basis on which to act, the conclusion is inertia or reproduction of the status quo, which is precisely the regulatory paralysis the diagnosis purports to describe.

- [2834531-029](https://wulfkaal.github.io/claims/2834531-029) [normative/argued] -- The response to contested facts should not be to abandon facts, but to identify alternative grounds for regulation that would make the regulation of innovative products and services more effective and more legitimate.
  > And yet, rather than abandoning facts, we should be thinking about some alternative grounds for regulation that would allow the regulation of innovative products and services to be more effective and legitimate.
