- samstave 4y agoExactly - imagine when we get to the point where, regardless of your "crime", your punishment is 'augmented' by the "thing that you said in the past" AND when it starts to be able to connect to APIs of your social/whatever accounts and AI-Auto-Cancel you.... Basically digital assassination.
