No. I won't be party to forcing people to undergo telepathic invasion so that they can help.

[oldsoldiersneverdie]

Well, you can't exactly run regular background checks here.

[boughtabookstore]

That's true enough. I don't have the power to demand that and I wouldn't be willing to - perhaps for smaller, sensitive tasks, but not for general access. Besides, there are well over 300 people here.

[oldsoldiersneverdie]

And most of those 300 people were just held hostage because a handful who wanted to cause trouble managed to get access to every system on this base.

[boughtabookstore]

It's still a violation when it hasn't been volunteered for.

[oldsoldiersneverdie]

I wasn't suggesting sitting here and checking everyone - which would be simple, but yes, ethically wrong. Making it a condition of certain kinds of work isn't the same.

[boughtabookstore]

How would you enforce that?

[oldsoldiersneverdie]

Which part?

[boughtabookstore]

Any of it. All of it.
