If reincarnation exists, I don't wanna be reincarnated into that world...
Like I sometimes just imagine my parents having that...
Oh jeez I'm gonna have a nightmare
Like sometimes, I have this weird paranoia and like I'd wonder if there was a covered up traumatic memory of even worse abuse that my mom somehow deleted my memory of so that I don't remember resenting her even more than I currently do.
There's a good cyberpunk story in that premise.
Patents should need a license to have children, and children should have way stronger rights and autonomy.
Patents should need a license to have children

What happens if they fuck without a license?
Forced abortion?
My parents didn't have permission from the CCP to have me. I was the 2nd child they had during one child policy. I was "supposed" to be terminated.
So... you're saying... I should've been terminated?

Tracking devices like Apple Tag.
It has its uses, but it can also be used to track people without them being aware.
AI. The opportunities for abuse are practically unlimited.
For the most part options I see with AI are just more of the same kind of abuse we already had. Maybe it makes it a bit easier or harder to identify as fake, but isn't anything you couldn't already do with other methods.
Just take phone scams for example:
With AI, you can completely automatically research a person's life, analyze, where they are especially emotionally vulnerable, create a deep fake of a person close to them and manipulate them into giving you money.
Without AI, that would take a scammer days. And they still wouldn't be as good at pretending they are a loved one.
Those same tools can also, just as easily be used for voter manipulation.
And we don't even know yet what other creative ideas people will come up with
