It's a little sad that we need to actually say this, but:
Don't be an asshole or you will be permanently banned.
Respectful debate is totally OK, criticizing a product is fine, but being verbally abusive will not be tolerated.
Focus on discussing the idea, not attacking the person.

Did an LLM/AI write this article? It says so much, but tells so little. Every link in the article is either to an irrelevant story or is inapplicable to Orange County, California. What are the "speed limits and precise definitions" being implemented? Why is Stockton mentioned? That's a city in San Joaquin County, hundreds of km to the north of Orange County.
What is this? "Electronic" bike? The word used by basically everyone is "electric bike". And I don't even know if "shift their behavior" is a poorly-landing bike pun or an attempt at summarizing this "article". What concrete things should a resident in Orange County be doing now when considering a purchase?
I'm not sure I learned much at all from this.
Nonsense, you learned that Ecoticias.com sucks. That's something, right?
