This kind of thing will probably never fly, because Americans expect that they can break the law and in most cases will not suffer any consequences. Anything that threatens this would be, in their eyes, oppression. Imagine if you immediately got a text informing you of your $300 speeding ticket within a few seconds of you going a mile per hour over. People would riot.
However, Americans expect that the law is enforced vigorously upon other people, especially people they hate. If AI enabled immediate immigration enforcement on undocumented migrants, large portions of the population would injure themselves running to the voting booth to have it added to the Constitution.
It's the whole expectation that for my group the law protects but does not bind, and for others it binds but does not protect.
>For millennia, conservatism had no name, because no other model of polity had ever been proposed. “The king can do no wrong.” In practice, this immunity was always extended to the king’s friends, however fungible a group they might have been. Today, we still have the king’s friends even where there is no king (dictator, etc.). Another way to look at this is that the king is a faction, rather than an individual.
