Exactly. With special safeguards to prevent them from "exfiltrating" any of your property or information with the help of accomplices on the ground, online services, or other clever hacks.

Yes, that's the path we're on. It may start with poor eastern Europeans, then gradually move to Africans who tele-operate on eastern European homes.

  Is there an add on / subscription / higher tier where it joins in?

Better than local servants doing chores.

  Why is that better?

    Slavery is better when you don't have to think about it, I suppose.

      It's not slavery when you get paid for it and can quit

        Slaves generally get room and board, and always have the opportunity to quit (although the other option is often death, so slavery is preferable.) I'm not trying to be facetious, I'm trying to tell you that your criteria are not meaningful, and you're pretending like they're obvious. It's why many US slaves moved directly from slavery into sharecropping for the same masters. The only thing that changed was the paperwork. Now they were renters, who could quit (with no assets and no means to feed themselves.)

        I once ham-fistedly tried to allude to a similar concept. That slaves were at least "kept" while today's wage slaves have more responsibility, and de facto less freedom due to 'The Matrix' that is our financial and legal system that benefits so few. We have lords of land. A monetary system based mostly on trickery hidden behind boring math that inexorably erodes the purchasing power of what we receive as compensation for our finite time alive. So let's just jump to the interesting bit: how do we fix it? Got any ideas?
