Oh, this can only end in tears.
And just by chance does anyone know what the damage is done to society by punishing victimless crimes?

Not wearing seatbelts and fucking around with a phone are hardly victimless crimes and those laws that punish such offenses were written in blood. Never understood people taking safety regulations lightly. It's not a fucking suggestion.
Who is the victim of not wearing a seatbelt?
Is it one of those 'you're not allowed to do things that only affect you because we're a society' type things where we should ban video games and sweet foods too?
I love threads like these because it really shows how flexible opinions are, post about ai surveillance state and everyone is against it but post about car drivers getting fined for not wearing a seatbelt and everyone loves it.
Surely the ultimate come away from that is will not ok with people breaking the law and we're not ok with AI taking people's jobs. There is no conflict here
So you think most people like the idea of a surveillance state automaticly enforcing it's every whim with perfect efficiency?
I'm pretty sure that's something pretty much universally disliked
