Well it can be bypassed by setting up a new company with the same name. Someone had done that against stripe I remember.
EV certs show the company name and the country, for disambiguation, on the assumption that you cannot have two companies of the same name in the same country. However, this is not true in the USA, where names are unique only within each state.
That's how someone got an EV cert for Stripe (USA).
The fact your friend is suffering no consequences and is able to just carry on is exactly what is wrong with this industry.
In a perfect world the creation of software would have been locked down like other engineering fields, with developers and companies suffering legal consequences for exposing customer information.
GDPR fines can accomplish this.
I was unaware that there were AI features in Firefox.
On the wayback machine it does appear that putty.org recently changed. If you go to www.putty.org you can see the page everyone is talking about still present.
How odd. Having different content on the main domain and the www subdomain is so unusual that it's hard to believe it was done on purpose.
Has the putty.org website changed in the few hours since this was posted? I see nothing there about any kind of software at all. It appears to be about someone called Mike Yeadon, and scandals in the pharmaceutical industry. That's not what anyone else here is describing.

There are few things that make me angrier than trying to hold back cures for deafness because of "cultural erasure" or whatever the phrasing is. It is utterly reprehensible. To try to keep someone disabled (yes - disabled, not "differently abled", they are objectively lacking a capability that a healthy human has) just so that there are more people in your community is objectively evil in my book. It is directly doing harm to people for one's own benefit.
If a person wishes to not get a certain treatment - fine, that's their right. But when one starts trying to keep others down, that's not ok.
There are few things that make me angrier than people who have very strong opinions on subjects they have only just become aware of.
I'm assuming that the name is a Discworld reference?
I just get a bunch of stars.

You invoke "safety" in the same manner that peddlers of all sorts of evil invoke terrorism or think of the children and then you cap it off with a straw man, as if there's serious money to be made with or without this mundane and niche law or comparable ones.
Bridge height postings more or less stand on their own merit and probably don't need laws to continue to exist. The fact that they are legislated at all is mostly a reflection of the fact that the state was the only entity positioned to deal with such an issue when they first became of enough value to be worth doing basically all the time.
I think you'll find that this law does not originally come from the state. It comes from local river authorities, perhaps under the Port of London Authority.
