But technology already does exactly what it is asked. The problem is the user isn’t always in control.
Technology can’t ask for consent, and it certainly isn’t responsible for honoring user wishes.
It’s the people who make the technology. Assigning blame to the blameless dodges the problem.

So we build the machines in the US, too!
Wait, there are tariffs on steel imports? Grab those pickaxes, folks. Time to get mining!
Wait, the US is entire populated by passengers on the “B” Ark? Oops.
(“What’s a B Ark”? Oh sweet summer child, time to read a most wonderful trilogy of five books.)

Wow. Just looked further at the report I linked.
30+ full-time staff (split between FTE and contract) plus a few part-time.
Wow. Think about this number: 116,666.67. That’s how much gross revenue SJG generated per F/T in 2023. Not a bad salary!
Except…
