You’re right they could. But I’m a systems architect who deals with university wide networks so I know what a cluster fuck that would be. It would be absolutely unmanageable. I’d wager there is no way in hell they are gonna do that.
I’m hopeful that an adult in the room is going to show how unworkable this is gonna be but who knows.
They probably know this, and are pushing it anyway - for the votes and the lobbyist backing. (most) voters don't know how ridiculous it is from the technical perspective, and the lobbyists are only looking for their own financial advantages which often come from chaos.
They're all adults, just not adults who care what they break.
I hate how true this is….
