    They’ve managed to turn »we think you might be dangerous« into a number on a screen, which apparently makes it science. And when that number ruins someone’s chances of rehabilitation, everyone gets to shrug and blame the software. What a convenient little invention.

      I just saw the movie “Brazil” and boy, that “everyone gets to shrug and blame the software.” just sent chills down my back.

        Psycho-Pass mentioned!

        I thought of Total Recall first, but yeah Psycho-Pass fits here as well

        Edit: wrong sci-fi. Minority Report

      Let’s be honest we’re not going for rehabilitation here, American prisons are designed for two things: slavery and cruelty.
