I don’t think anyone’s disagreeing with that. My interpretation of your initial comment was that you were saying it’s not an important issue because it can’t be effectively policed. I don’t think that’s what you meant, but that’s what I got out of your saying no in response to the assertion that it’s important.



The reason I'm saying "no" is this:

>> The people who nominally you want to be enforcing this "right" are also some of the people who most want to AI profile you.

If your goal is specifically to have someone enforce a rule against themselves, that's not an important issue, because it won't work.

If you change the statement of your goal so that you're not requiring the enforcement power to be vested in the target of the rule, then the issue might become more important.


Right, but being fatalistic and giving up is even less likely to be successful than attempting to create counterbalancing force in the system.
