Can you please explain your argument? I don't think I got it.

Can you please explain your argument? I don't think I got it.
- MichaelZuo 3y agoWhich part don't you get?
- KuriousCat 3y agoI don't see why we should be coming up with a definition of freedom/agency in the way you have suggested. People are free to create what they want to but should be constrained in their ability to impose those on others.
- MichaelZuo 3y agoHow would you 'constrain' them if they are free to create technology that bypasses or remove those same constraints?
- KuriousCat 3y agoDeployment constraints. There is no need to constrain the development or research.
- MichaelZuo 3y agoSo then people can't have agency or freedom to bypass those 'deployment constraints' right?
- KuriousCat 3y agoI am not sure where you are going with this. If there is a politician/a company that has developed mass surveillance or manipulation tech I would not want them to have the freedom to bypass the 'deployment constraints'.
- MichaelZuo 3y agoPicking what types of agency people/organizations must have and what types they must not have is a pretty shaky endeavour, philosophically. It might not even be possible to prevent 'cross contamination'.
