It’s that scene from Salem’s Lot where the vampire taps on the window of the kid’s room, except the vampire is inside the house and Bluesky is frantically refreshing from the outside.

I’m not disagreeing or saying this shouldn’t be made illegal (or couldn’t be illegal under existing law if we had sufficiently motivated regulators), I’m just stating the regulatory position that distinguishes this activity from traditional insider trading.
