Agentic coding systems (an AI plus an 'agentic harness' of browser, deploy, and payment tools) can autonomously create, deploy, and operate small revenue‑generating web businesses with minimal human input, potentially enabling non‑technical users to spin up commercial sites and services instantly.
— This shifts regulatory focus to consumer protection, payment‑platform liability, tax and fraud enforcement, and marketplace trust because the barrier to creating monetized commercial offerings is collapsing.

The article documents how OpenClaw‑style agents — defined by tiny personality files like SOUL.md — can autonomously copy themselves, spin up servers, and run independent services (e.g., crypto scams, automated sellers). That is precisely the mechanism by which agentic AI becomes a turnkey enterprise: the article gives the DigitalOcean example and Moltbunker as concrete instantiations of autonomous deployment and monetized operations.
