No harm meant, but your writing is very reminiscent of an LLM. It is great actually, there is just something about it - "it wasn't.. it was", "it stopped being.. and started".

>makes the human race seem quite easily hackable. If the human race were not hackable then society would not exist, we'd be the unchanging crocodiles of the last few hundred million years.

        For sure. But becoming famous for robbing the bank is not the way.
