It sounds like we agree, but I'm much less lawerly due to my lack of experience in that field.

No worries, I don't have any direct experience either, just a strong interest.

As a kid, I wanted to be a lawyer, but I was quite introverted so litigation wasn't appealing, so I decided to go into software patent law (I loved computers). While doing a CS undergrad, I learned how terrible software patents are, so I stuck to software dev.

I still really like the law, but now I'm more interested as a citizen knowing my rights instead of looking to prosecute the law.
