So basically, the government doesn't care about the issues and doesn't plan to do anything about it.

Nah, the politicians asked around, the automaker lobbyists blamed the device, some intern-slave wrote a halfass bill, and no one cared to stop fundraising as little power prostitutes long enough to question it.
