What happens when a rowdy prisoner breaks the VR headset and is suddenly trapped alone in a box for 10 years.
What state do you think he’ll be in when he’s let out?
Ridiculous idea
- FeepingCreature 5y agoMaybe you could give them a replacement edit: and I mean, they could still use voicechat in the meanwhile, you can build that in the wall so it's pretty hard to break
- simmerup 5y agoAnd when they break the replacement? Or they piss off the guards so the replacement somehow takes months to get to them? It’s cruel.
- bryanrasmussen 5y ago>Maybe you could give them a replacement but isn't this supposed to be happening in America?
- mcguire 5y agoWhat happens if VR goggles turn out not to be the most wonderful thing ever? Well, it's still cheaper and I'm sure eventually VR technology will get better...
- nemo44x 5y agoLobotomy was used for this purpose for many years to make unruly prisoners docile. The practice is still legal (and doesn't use an ice pick any longer), however it is rarely used today. There are however an array of medications that could be administrated to force compliance and do not cause a permanent state like a lobotomy would. But yes, the entire idea is dehumanizing in my opinion.
- simmerup 5y agoDehumanising is the Silicon Valley status quo.

- FeepingCreature 5y agoPrison is dehumanizing. Any gain in dehumanization may well be made up for by the incredibly reduction in rape.
