This was back in 2026, before they released the Dredd series for civilian applications with onboard due processing and agents for prosecution, defense, judge, jury and executioner with millisecond response times, drastically reducing price per perpetrator.

Oof. "Price per perp" is so perfectly aligned with LinkedIn writing style I'm surprised I hadn't seen it already.

I do like the implied moral superiority. “Price per objectively bad guy or gal” or PPOBGOG is being workshopped now.

This will be very controversial in the USA due to "or gal" being gender-inclusive, splitting Republicans and Democrats over whether the Palantir-Raytheon fast-track bill should say PPOBG or PPOBGOG.

Oh, sorry. I didn't know that the "past" feature now sends comments back in time. That needs a confirmation pop up. It could really fuck up a timeline.

Dang, post needs a [2026] in the title, so people know this is from last century.
