haha i just read another interview from a few years ago on gawker and look at this
"the Internet"—I find this concept so sickening and suffocating that I use it in scare quotes throughout the book

from the same interview. apparently we already have the technology of the movie minority report available to us but wait a second wouldn't eliminating crime actually be a bad thing because the fact that crimes are allowed to happen (wtf???) lets us have discussions(???)
We have the means to predict crime—with "big data" and smart algorithms—and prevent it from happening, ergo eliminating crime is a problem worth solving.But is eliminating crime really a project worth pursuing? Don't we need to be able to break laws in order to revise them? Once crimes are committed, cases reach the courts, generate debate in the media, and so forth—the very fact that crimes are allowed to happen allows us to revise the norms in question. So the inefficiency of the system—the fact that the crime rate is not zero—-is what saves us from the tyranny of conservatism and complacency that might be the outcome if we delegate crime prevention to algorithms and databases.
