A rule is a fence. A pitch wears a fence as a costume
A regulation is a public fence: a statute, a rule a named agency wrote, a court that will back it. It exists whether or not this classroom likes it. House rules are the smaller fence we wrote for this room — no tips, no seeds, no live orders. Mixing those two fences is how a pitch says “we’re like a bank” while holding a spreadsheet.

We’ll open this slide when you come back. This device remembers it.
Keys move the deck. N next, P previous. Ours. Not PowerPoint.
Swipe the deck. Hold Previous for slide one. A vertical swipe still scrolls the page.

This path names the U.S. fences in classroom words, then says what we are not. Other countries have other names. Local law is local law. We will not be your lawyer in any of them. Passing this quiz is not a Series license, not a bar card, and not permission to skip a .
If a stranger says “don’t worry, it’s regulated,” which shop, which number, and whether you can check it on that shop’s own site without a minder. A halo is not a registration. A logo in a footer is not a license.
Human: the boring answer is usually the adult one. “I don’t know, let’s look it up” beats “trust me, we’re a cop.” We will look it up in words. We will not look it up as your counsel.
Say it back below. Then the next lesson opens. If you leave the page, we will ask to save your spot.
