What happens, for example, if (or when?) this company gets acquired by a malicious actor? It would've built a user base that bought into its mission statement, actively believes they're making society safer, as well as conditioned to get rewarded for following instructions to do so. What happens if this is weaponized for economic or political gain? This is a recipe for even worse and prolonged events than what's happened on Jan. 6.
- elliekelly 5y agoI think an app like this is depicted in Westworld. It’s basically Uber for “crime” fighting vigilantes/mercenaries.
- sithadmin 5y agoYes, and no. The app depicted in Season 3 is a gig economy app for hired muscle in general, for jobs both legal and illegal. The implication is that the latter is the norm.
- abvdasker 5y agoHonestly it sounds like Citizen is already being run by a malicious actor.
- user-the-name 5y agoDon't think any acquisition is needed for that.
