Could we like...stop pretending that this wasn't the plan all along?

The AS cartel isn't investing what are already trillions of dollars in that technology because they want humanity to prosper, or because they hope commoners will pay a miserly monthly subscription. They are doing it because they know that middle managers will use it to get rid of you. If that's not possible or feasible, then at least squeeze you out. That requires invasive monitoring. I mean, obviously, right ?
