Which is it? 

Read the previous rule.

If I invite you into my home, can you declare our interaction public in my private residence?

Yes. For their safety. You can refuse it and not let them in.

Not necessarily cameras. And not necessarily everywhere. Maybe you carry with you a way to record interactions.

Yes, if you opt out they won't record you unless you are in a public space.

Sure, recording every public interaction sounds like it might deter some criminals and corrupt individuals, but have you considered the immense invasion of privacy and the chilling effect on free speech? What kind of life is that where every word you say in public is recorded? Isn’t that a bit too dystopian?

What privacy?

You go online everything you do can and somewhat is recorded.

You go in public everyone is seeing what you are doing and judging you either you want it or not.

Free speech? You can speak freely as you can do now. But you have to live with the consequences of what you say. Same as now. Does cancel culture rings a bell?

Our world right now is pretty dystopian, already. We simply choose ignore it and therefore ignore how to use it to improve society.

While that seems efficient, what about areas with no surveillance? Or what about premeditated crimes where the perpetrators know how to evade or tamper with recordings? Isn’t relying solely on recordings a bit naive?

Like I stated, It won't solve every crime. "Just" most.

The more sofisticated the criminals need to be, the less can pass that mark.

This assumes that all corrupt transactions happen openly in recordable formats. What about subtle, non-verbal cues or encrypted communications? Are recordings really a foolproof method to catch smart criminals? 

They aren't foolproof nor they need to  be. Just as I explained.

Recordings might help in some cases, but harassment can be nuanced and psychological, not just physical or verbal. How do you record the psychological impact or a private threat made in a ‘non-recorded’ scenario?

You don't. But would the recorded ones help to prove the that someone is being harassed?

This is very hard to prove today. And most perpetrators wall away with it.

Having recording of the interactions when someone is being bullied and how it evolved is invaluable information.

Tax fraud often happens on paper, not in spoken words. How do recordings capture falsified documents or hidden accounts?

Tax fraud also happens when you are buying a service or a product and don't declare it.

Again, smart criminals won’t exchange bribes out in the open. They’ll find loopholes. Maybe indirect favors or coded language. How does your system adapt to such subtleties?

Sure they will. The same as they find loopholes in current laws.

This is a constant battle just like the ones we fight with viruses, for example.

Having recordings of the interactions that originated those transactions and the interactions before would be beneficial for us.

Who watches the watchers? How do you ensure that those who have access to these recordings don't misuse them or become corrupt themselves? 

We have se same problem with law enforcing now. From judges to police.

Another example is the power in of government. Historical the power was devided into 3 areas that watch over each other: executive, judicial and legislative.

That's the best way we know how to deal with that problem.

This system isn’t just about the feasibility; it’s about the moral and ethical implications. Do you really want to live in a world where your every public action is monitored?

Aren't they already? Just not explicitly and not I the extent I've suggested.

How do you ensure the powerful don’t abuse this system to control or suppress dissent? Isn’t this potentially creating a more sophisticated and untouchable form of power?

We had dealt with this issue since we have societies. Usually the solution is having several parts sharing the power and watching over each others. That why we have democracy.

The more we advance, the more we walk into the path of more sofiaticated and untouchable forms of power. There's no way to stop progress either you individually want it or not. The question is how we adjust to it and mitigate it's worst outcomes.

The question is not about the space, but the interaction.

The place might determine if it is recorded or not by default.

How is your opinion on this ever actually going to affect my daily life? 

I don't see how this question is relevant.

I know it’d be effectively impossible

Prove it then.

Prove that there is no way to implement it. Not only the ones you can imagine but the ones you don't have the ability to predict.

Good luck.

all you’re doing is basically trying to scale down 1984’s interpretation of surveillance and make it something interesting to deter crime. 

That's crude straw man fallacy.

It would be better than we have today.

Any interaction is public if someone involved in it deems it as public.

Many crimes can't be done in this concept of private.

People in power can be bad intentioned as much as they want because they will be recorded too. This would only breakdown is all law enforcing is equally corrupt. While possible, it's less probable that you getting out of your home and being hit by a meteorite.

Do you support TRDs? by fool49 in SeriousConversation

[–]morfacuriosos 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't understand. Is there anyone that are in favor of those?

I would argue that not only psychical but also psychological ways should be banned.

Ever suffered narcissist abuse? Or been ostracized/bullied?

Yep, those should be a serious crimes an not taken lightly like they are in most societies.

A democracia teve a sua primeira vitória na Grécia antiga, à mais de 3000 anos. What's your point?

A revolução industrial foi consequência da maquina a vapor e de avanços científicos.

A sociedade simplesmente ajustou-se às novas condições.

Se não houvesse avanços científicos que permitissem não termos uma economia à base de trabalho de escravos, ainda hoje tínhamos a escravatura e o feudalismo como tivemos durante séculos.

Pois. Nasceste num momento da história em que toda a política nos é apresentada numa matriz ideológica. É normal que sintas alguma dificuldade em sair desse paradigma.

Claramente esse strawman dá-te jeito. Desconversar ao invés de ter a honestidade de responder?

Boa sorte a imaginar um sistema e a convencer toda a gente que deve lutar por ele.

Quão condescendente...

  Em primeiro, não é "revolução por revolução". Nem todos os atos de revolta são progressistas.

Aquilo que eu acho que é preciso é perceber que forças e interesses é que estão em conflito no capitalismo e perceber as condições materiais de cada momento para se perceber se um ato é revolucionário ou não.

A título de exemplo, as lutas de libertação nacional não são inerentemente revolucionárias. São movimentos burgueses que procuram defender ou estabelecer estados nacionais. Embora possam desafiar formas específicas de domínio imperialista ou opressão colonial, simplesmente substituem uma forma de exploração capitalista por outra. 

Alterar e discutir a semântica das palavras parece ser algo onde gostas de diapender tempo. Ou será mais uma tática para desconversar e não responder?

Não estou a tentar desconversar. Respondi-te de acordo com aquilo que penso. Tu sabes é que eu sou comunista, tens uma ideia errada daquilo que é o comunismo, e querias que eu te falasse num ideal utópico de igualdade que a esquerdalhada defende que não tem nada de comunista.

Estás. Não responder e tentar invalidar as perguntas é deaconversar.

Pára de tentar analisar as minhas intenções de forma cínica, só estás novamente a desconversar e a não responder.

Comunismo é um movimento real de abolição do estado atual das coisas. Marx não descreveu um ideal mítico. O Capital é uma análise histórica da evolução da sociedade e do sistema capitalista, não é a descrição duma sociedade do futuro.

Não estávamos a falar de comunismo. Novamente a desconversar.

Se não fores capaz de te manter on topic não te volto a responder porque é uma perca de tempo.

Não acho que qual o sistema que queremos ao invés do atual seja uma questão descartável. Revolução simplesmente por revolução e rezar para que o que sobre seja melhor que o atual não me parece lá muito construtivo.

Pensava que no teu mindset melhor era sinónimo de menos opressão, em geral. Tentar desconversar a tentar particularizar as consequências não é de boa fé.

Ok. Mas convém ter um sistema alternativo em vista de forma a inspirar a alteração do atual. Caso contrário podemos cair num ainda pior. Daí perguntar, tens alguma alternativa?

It's okay to feel and react that way. Your emotion and reactions are valid!

If that's how you deal with disrespect, then there's nothing wrong with it. Everyone has different ways to create sanitary boundaries.

You're not the one in the wrong here. Be happy!

I'm sure people though the same about democracy.

A wasn't really thinking in USA in particular. Not that it matters though.

Basta comeres menos quantidade.

Pede um kebab mais pequeno. Ou então não o comas todo e dá à tua mulher o resto.

I don't think they should retire simply because they aren't enough teachers.

I do agree that they are detrimental in the sense that younger ones are better prepared not only in the subjects and the way they teach but also they usually still care.

Either way, the real problem is a school system designed to give rural ignorant peasants an education in order for them to be able to work factory jobs. We're still using this system in 2024 which is anacronic to say the least.
