This isn't a new idea, we discussed it weeks or even months ago. I put a note on the first post covering it.<br/><br/>As you correctly say there would be anarchy if the rule was broken so in my mind its 90% obeyed and yes I think there are more severe punishments in this universe, especially for "theft of self-aware property" or "damage to self-aware property" or "disregarding an owners set limits of contact with self-aware property". If the punishments were not draconian there would be widespread theft of slaves that went to the corner shop to buy master a newspaper.
