Ubiquitous law enforcement

Ubiquitous law enforcement is a system that embeds government code into every connected appliance, hardware, vehicle, etc. It allows the highest degree imaginable of totalitarian rule. It allows for the complete suppression of individual rights and the instant subordination of every single person under it to the decrees of authoritarian rulers. It facilitates total surveillance of the population as every single piece of hardware and software becomes a government spy and enforcer.

Similarly to previous historical attempts at totalitarian rule it eventually leads to societal collapse as even the most advanced AI cannot solve the economic calculation problem. The decentralised nature of information in society requires bottom-up feedback mechanisms which are severely impeded by central economic planning.
