     @lonelyowl @SunMcNukes It's not so much ludditism; you can get a feel for most of it by reading the first page or two of his paper. The idea is that the rush to the cities due to industrialization has forced excessive socialization (which has deformed politics) and that people are happiest when doing work related to fundamental needs. It is 34 pages but the introduction is half a page.

     No, every technology that matters (i.e., is not a toy) makes something that was difficult (crossing the ocean safely, producing textiles) into something easy, or creates a capability that didn't exist (flight). This always shifts society.

     @lonelyowl @tiskaan @p from that perspective it really sounds like the hammer and sickle zealots which the same Ted rejects as collectivists in nature. I think the sanest conclusion would be to consider tech as a mere tool and focus on the bad actors who abuse it for their vile purposes.

     But to perform a violent actions to RESTORE JUSTICE, well, that's garbage. I don't think i have a right to blow up a google datacenter, for example. I don't want to fight google, i will just try to avoid it.

     I personally rather will stay neutral if you will perform a violent actions on shitty and autocratic technology. Go blow up some government servers hosting a surveillance spyware, this is rather deontologically bad but i don’t like governments anyway.

     But if some freak will get into my house and break my gpu because they think that my local SD or falcon-llm causes their poor performance on a labor market - excuse me, i’ll kill them. Or, at least, will try.

     Actually illegal if you mean it's autonomous. The legal reasoning is based on some case where a guy rigged a shotgun trap inside his barn, someone that lived near him had been going into his barn to take antique glassware, the judge's ruling was that a human can distinguish acceptable targets from unacceptable ones or de-escalate and maybe not pull the trigger, but a lethal trap cannot.
     
     At any rate, I'd usually rather solve my problems by making things, but I can't rule out the possibility of blowing up a datacenter on general principle.

     No ITAR restrictions on just motion tracking without an automated trigger puller AFAIK, however, once you add in thermal it becomes a big no-no (which is why consumer grade FLIRs are framerate limited to something stupid like 14fps)
