If you can't tell the difference between that and jail, I'm not sure how I can explain it better to you.

- kansface 6y agoWhy do you think jail is the only punishment doled out by the judicial system? As I just wrote, we ban computer hackers from using computers for life - that's not jail. ~Cancellation~ exile was a preferred punishment, also not jail. We currently sentence people to community service and other metered, lesser acts of contrition/penance/punishment. For instance, we make graffiti artists clean up their art with soap and water (still not jail). Another favored punishment is the fine, in which society confiscates ill-begotten proceeds or perhaps resorts to mere punishment as recompense. I don't see much of a difference between a judge issuing a fine and an Internet mob merely destroying your life besides due process.
