Want in resin pin form.
Larry Ellison is one of the biggest pieces of shit and Oracle can go fuck themselves.
Lets use it only on citizens who are billionaires to make sure they remain on their best behavior.
A symptom of believing they are better than others.
And by “citizens” you mean slaves.
On coins, on stamps, on the covers of books, on banners, on posters, and on the wrappings of a cigarette Packet – [Big Brother was] everywhere. Always the eyes watching you and the voice enveloping you. Asleep or awake, working or eating, indoors or out of doors, in the bath or in bed – no escape. Nothing was your own except the few cubic centimetres inside your skull.
– George Orwell, Nineteen-Eighty-FourAnd even those few cubic centimeters will only be yours as long as we don’t have the tech yet to access that. Once that tech is available, it’s an inevitability that that too will be theirs
Who’s watching the billionaires?
The Smash Brothers.
Usual a few hundred who blow the whistle after the billionaire is dead.
They’ve heard what happens to formerly-live whistle blowers.
Larry Ellison says that North Korea and China are great countries to live in
You first, and then we’ll lock the door behind you, you mother fucker
Pardon my French, but these scum of the earth should rot in hell as far as I am concerned. They are a literal cancer for this world
Not only parasites, but they want to decide everything too.
Sure, it could, but should it? No of course not, a safe “utopian” society through force is dystopian and still unsafe (just now the danger is sanctioned, don’t run afoul of Lord AI) in reality.
I’ll take the possibility of getting shot by some dickhead over AI overlords watching my every move any day of the week.
There’s a different solution that can ensure billionaires will be on their best behavior.
Right, because billionaires will just fall over and concede - they won’t have their government lapdogs impose draconian security and lockdown mentality on our whole society. Yes indeed, the action movie fantasy that makes you feel badass is a sure-fire winner.

That’s literally what this guy is trying to do right now.
Yes it was sarcasm, although I’m not sure who you mean by “this guy”.
It won’t matter past a certain point what kind of tech they employ.
That’s the spirit! Badassedness uber alles!
Right, because billionaires will just fall over and concede
Zombies aren’t real.
Leave it to the associopathic billionaires to take a look at 1984 and decide to use it as an instruction book.
Brb, buying cases of Guy Fawkes masks…
You oughta buy shares of the Guy Fawkes Mask Co.
ORACLE - One Rich Asshole Called Larry Ellison
Of course it is, because that AI will totally not be programmed to ONLY surveil the lower tier sub-humans, Riiiiiiiiiight ?
I heard a guy tell a story about a vast AI-fueled cluster of bombs strapped to Larry’s head set to trigger if he says objectively inhumane, anti-democratic shit can ensure Larry stays a lot quieter.
Remember, remember the 4th of December…
5th of December?
I’m aware of the 5th of November and the 4th of December…
Long day, thanks. Fixed.
Can’t forget the third of September! That’s a day I’ll always remember, yes I will, 'cause that was the day my daddy died.
Come to think of it, do you remember the 21st night of September? Love was changin’ the minds of pretenders while chasing the clouds away.
