In order for our free market to function in the public interest, the companies amassing wealth and profiting from AI must be forced to take ownership of, and internalize, these costs.

Quote verified via web search (schneier.com returned HTTP 403 to WebFetch, but search results reproduce the wording verbatim from Bruce Schneier's own March 2026 "Schneier on Security" post "As the US Midterms Approach, AI Is Going to Emerge as a Key Issue" — the primary source). Confirmed: "In order for our free market to function in the public interest, the companies amassing wealth and profiting from AI must be forced to take ownership of, and internalize, these costs." Year 2026 correct, author attribution confirmed. Vote alignment: Schneier argues AI companies should be forced to internalize the costs/harms of their products rather than externalize them, directly consistent with his "for" vote on "AI companies should be liable for harms caused by their deployed models."
