there is an old biblical adage that those who live by the sword, die by the sword.
If you're working to defeat tyranny, to bring freedom, through coding for users, speaking with others or in public, writing books, campaigning, running cryptocurrency nodes, however the ways... you're already living by the sword, and risking death by doing so. People only have so many years, and at the end of the day, AP is just another sword roaming around, humanity will survive at some level either way. Who could argue that it's not already among the set of potential futures. Or that there's not already a lot of dying going on. Or that one could really retain control, or control anyone's use, of any particular sword. People, Govts, and Corps already hire mercenaries and hitmen in the real world. Seems that by natural progression eventually someone somewhere will make the decision to up the game. Those who aren't in the game, not high profile making waves, just living their workaday life, won't have anything to worry about, certainly not more than the odds of dying from any other cause. Nor will anyone be foolish enough to press their luck that far. These types of things are always rogue, and outside our control once the ideas become known. So why bother worrying? Just live.
