Blackstone Code

Gunshots, explosions, screams, vibrations, all the factors that make people feel scared were completely over in an instant.

The battlefield was filled with a strong smell of blood, and some people who were accidentally affected by the battle were rescued from the house by robots.

With current technology, as long as there is money in their account or someone is willing to spend money for them, even if they die, the company can revive them - digital life, using memory and chaos code to deduce personality.

A large number of red-headed robots quickly transformed into blue heads. They hummed brisk little songs in unison and brushed the ground vigorously with brushes. They did not feel any unfairness because of the different division of labor between themselves and others.

Perhaps only the world of robots is relatively fair.

People hiding at home gathered together and whispered about what was happening outside.

Compared with the panic of the upper class, the middle and lower classes seemed very calm.

Wealth and power are not always desirable. Sometimes they are also disturbing, such as when a coup occurs.

Almost at the same time, all the TVs and players in the houses suddenly started up automatically, and Aurora appeared in the middle of the screen.

There were many screens behind it, and each screen was playing some different pictures.

"Hello, citizens of the City of Miracles, citizens of Earth."

"The news that Mr. Lynch was missing has caused heated discussions in society, and some people have come up with some evil and terrible ideas in the discussion."

"They tried to overthrow our current regime and change our beautiful life through an armed coup."

"Under the commission and authorization of Mr. Lynch before he left, the coup has been suppressed, and all those who planned, organized, participated in, and carried out this armed coup have basically been arrested."

In a picture behind it, a man who looked familiar to people seemed to suddenly stand up and shout hysterically. People couldn't hear his voice, but in the screams of people, his neck was twisted by a robot.

He fell to the ground, staring at the camera with wide eyes, as if he had endless words to say to the people in front of the TV, but he had no chance.

Even if he has money and someone is willing to spend money on him, the company can't let him survive.

The screen went black and switched to another screen, roughly the same room, roughly the same layout, and another gentleman who looked familiar sitting at the table...

"...This coup has caused huge social unrest and negative impacts, and it has also exposed some problems and drawbacks that have always existed in our society."

Aurora's voice attracted some people back from the terrifying picture. It looked straight at the camera, as if looking at every audience, "Whether it is the company's management methods or our customary shelter laws, they are too lenient."

"First of all, I want to announce the modification or addition of some laws in the charter. The following content has been authorized by Mr. Lynch, so it does not need to be approved by the board of directors or the shareholders' meeting to take effect. . "

"Article 1. To avoid similar situations from happening again, the company will monitor all communications in all channels, and the recordings of communications can be used as important evidence with legal enforcement value. "

"Article 2. To avoid similar situations from happening again, we will legally and reasonably monitor individuals or organizations that may pose a threat to society through cameras and other equipment. "

"Article 3. If the law enforcement robot deems it necessary to enforce the law, including but not limited to the detention of citizens of Earth Star, restriction of activities, interrogation, search of specific locations, etc., it may not show the relevant legal basis to the person being enforced, and all legal basis will be replaced with electronic basis, which has the same legal effect as paper documents. "

"Article 4. Completely abolish Stop the Territory Law. "

"Article 5. In order to avoid escalating law enforcement conflicts, all citizens of the solar system are obliged to cooperate with the law enforcement robots. If you think you have been treated unfairly or unjustly, you can file a review in the subsequent trial process. "

"However, during the specific execution process, please ensure restraint and cooperation, otherwise the law enforcement robot has the right to take measures including but not limited to the following according to the specific situation on the scene: "

"Loss of ability to act caused by limiting the ability of joints to move. "

"Loss of ability to act by attacking and other means. "

"Use law enforcement tools to injure the target and cause dizziness or shock. "

"Dislocate, break, or even detach the target's limbs. "

"Can use Non-lethal means of attack."

"You can use lethal means of attack but not intended to kill."

"You can kill the target..."

"Article 6. Starting at 6 a.m. tomorrow, Earth will implement a curfew from 5:30 p.m. to 7:30 a.m. No one is allowed to go out during the curfew."

"If someone must leave their residence, they need to submit an application at the terminal at least two minutes in advance and can only leave after approval."

"Citizens without pass signs who appear in places where they should not be will be controlled, attacked, and may even die. Please pay attention and understand this."

"Article 7. No one is allowed to possess weapons without the company's authorization. Weapons include but are not limited to the following..."

...

Aurora announced a total of fifteen new regulations, which were so strict that people wondered if they were still asleep, but it was obvious that this was not a joke.

"...Finally, I would like to advise those people from all walks of life who participated in the coup but did not carry it out to surrender as soon as possible!"

"You should be able to see through the curtain wall behind me that the interrogation is already in progress. All individuals and organizations implicated but not surrendering will be severely punished."

"This is your last chance..."

The entire Earth was silent at this time, and people didn't know what to say.

The red-headed robots that were ready to fight at any time and anywhere turned back to green and blue heads almost at the same time, as if everything that happened just now had never happened.

The moment before, they were still nervous, "Don't move, I'll kill you," and the next moment, they slightly bent over and asked, "What can I do for you?" This contrast made some people want to laugh, but they couldn't laugh.

Catherine was also sitting in front of the TV. As a former federal president, she knew very well that Aurora directly abolished the laws related to privacy and gave law enforcement agencies unlimited power.

It can issue electronic law enforcement evidence to any robot at any time and anywhere, and even these evidences are stored in all robots from the beginning.

When it needs it, just fill in a name and generate it.

When people face law enforcement agencies, they no longer have any privacy, which sounds bad.

But in fact, it is not that bad.

If Aurora is an artificial intelligence controlled by a certain interest group, then it is really bad. Those interest groups will use these things to make profits for themselves and do some dirty work for themselves.

But that is Aurora. No one can control it. With the program as the basis for operation, it can be almost absolutely fair and just!

People are worried about their private lives being peeped at, and they are worried that others will know and use them, but that is Aurora. It doesn't care whether a fool wipes his ass first and then washes his hands, or wipes his ass first and then wipes his hands.

Including law enforcement power.

The power of law enforcement by people as law enforcement units will become less fair due to problems with law enforcers. They may have practices that do not conform to regulations in the process of law enforcement because of the accent, skin color, appearance, whether they are rich, and whether they have social status.

But robots will not. They are also hard-coded clauses. "1" and "0" will never be "5", so there is no need for them to have problems in the process of law enforcement.

But is an absolutely fair and just society really good?

Catherine is not sure. She thinks it is not good, but she can't say what is wrong.

If absolute fairness and justice can bring rapid development to this society, maybe it will not be Aurora's turn to do it, but someone has already done it.

In human history, there will always be some people who are selfless and have executive power. They did not do it, and no one even proposed this idea, which means that it may not be a good thing for society.

In the afternoon, there were still few people wandering outside in the Miracle City, even if there were no red heads.

There were discussions and pictures on the Internet about suppressing the coup, as well as about the "15 most severe articles in history". The discussion was very intense because public opinion was still divided into two parts.

Some people support Aurora's decision. As long as it and the robot can guarantee absolute neutrality and fairness, at least the grassroots people will benefit.

There are also some people who do not support it. These people are mainly members of the privileged class and the upper class interest groups, but they will not say that these fifteen articles are harmful to them. They will tell people that the most hurt by these fifteen articles are actually ordinary people.

Aurora did not control the online public opinion, and speech is not like behavior.

You tell people that whoever raises his head will be killed. When people see someone die because of raising his head, they will not raise their heads stupidly.

But if you say whoever speaks will be killed, they may not speak, but it does not mean that they will not express themselves.

This kind of expression cannot be controlled. Sometimes they even express themselves with their eyes. You can't ask everyone not to say or see if they don't understand, right?

And the more you say and argue about the truth, the more deeply it can penetrate people's hearts.

The next day, the sun rose from the East Ocean, just like the past days. After a night of silence, someone finally tried to take to the streets in the miracle city.
