Combine this with UBI and a monitoring collar (cellphone). Running a society becomes ridiculously easy. Simcity.
It might not be a free society per se, but it might be a very happy one.
(I'm getting that friendly "you are posting too much, wait an unspecified period of time before we'll allow you to post again." thing. It discourages trolls but it also enforces mediocrity and conformity. Just saying.)
- failuser 5y agoHappy? People sentenced by a judge or jury have a hope of appeal. People sentenced by Google don’t have any hope.
- swayvil 5y agoYeah, but we would have a lot more free time. Life would be simpler. And as long as you keep your behavior within the statistical sweet-zone the justicebots will leave you alone. (Much like social media, actually)

- swayvil 5y agoYes. As I said. It might not be a free society, per se.
