billionaires who talk like this should immediately be committed. he’s clearly far gone, just fucking take him away.
billionaires and their super important opinions eh? having money is a personality trait apparently
And who will decide what is good and bad behaviour? Hmm? And what advantage will society as a whole get from this?
“People behave themselves in a panopticon”-rich people
Firstly no, people don’t. Second, they go crazy in one. And third, this basically breaks down the threads of both community and individualism to create a miserable nightmare
Breaking community and individualism is kinda a big thing billionaires want because that way people can’t organise to rise up against them.
Maybe billionaires should be filmed and streamed continuously, since their behavior has such a big impact on the world. If they don’t like it maybe we shouldn’t allow them to control such incredible assets. I’m sure billionaires have nothing sketchy to hide, right? What we will see is probably how they are hard working people who are not at all detached from normal folks. Right?
Wrong think detected, proper authority has been notified.
Resitence iis futile.
“citizens on their best behavior” “big brother is always watching”
Don’t sound very different to me
By “citizens” he means poor people, naturally, and by “best behaviour” he means obedience to authority.
And by authority he means himself.
Ever notice that Larry Ellison looks like Satan?
I thought satan looks like that
If that’s the devil maybe I should be glad being gay is getting me sent into her arms

Is this what Ted Kaczyinski (the Unabomber) warned against?
That and global warming
And I guarantee that billionaire Larry Ellison blithely believes that he’ll be exempt - that all of this surveillance will just be used against the little people. And he’s almost certainly right.
He will be exempt. The areas that he lives in and the things that he does will not be tagged as “criminal” on the data system that he has the contract to administer.
That’s always how these systems work. You don’t worry about getting dragged into the Saudi Consulate and bonesawed to death by intelligence officers when you’re MBS, because you’re the boss and the guy getting bonesawed is your employee.
For the same reason, you don’t worry about getting spied on when you’re the one who owns and operates the big surveillance infrastructure because it exists for your benefit.
Just look at Musk to see someone whose wealth entirely excuses his behavior. It ain’t hypothetical in the slightest.
Larry, AI didn’t stop you from stealing an island from the people of Hawaii
in bad country the ruling class uses AI scoring system to ensure the compliance of the workers
So glad we live in good country where the ruling class are benevolent and would never do that to us.

I aim to misbehave
Love me a good Firefly reference.
That went well.
