Ordinarily, I’d agree with this, except to look at how this series of events transpired, one gets the sense that the aggressors in this scenario did not give a shit about identity as they went about (and continue to go about) dealing death (and worse) to pretty much anything in front of them.
In this case it seemed to be based on regions or zones in rural territories. Anybody in those towns or villages, was in the wrong place at the wrong time, and no amount information was going to make a difference.
I don’t think they were going around, checking names and marking clipboards. By all accounts, there was nothing orderly about this one. Little more than a perimeter walked down to a kill zone. The people that got away had to move fast, and of the ones that made it out of the round up, it seemed to be children and people who played dead.
So, add computerized record keeping to the mix. Will it be used to hunt people down? It’s probably a concern worth considering, but really the modus operandi seems to be search and destroy eviction from a territory, to clear out an area, not understanding and targeting network nodes in a constellation of peers.
Yeah, but those slaves are not the same sort of slave this article is about.
This article is about a specific set of rules enforced by a government, to single out one type of person, for the rest of their life. Indentured servitude should not be equivocated with slavery, which, by contrast, is for life, and was inescapable by law.
