What about "Predictive Programming" , people will become so accustomed to being ordered to speak carefully and wear a mask as they are told, they will not be alarmed at being ordered to wear a phone/monitoring collar that can "protect" them, locate them, entertain them, control them with tazershock or injections, do their business ...."alexa pay my xfinity bill", of course it will have a mask built in, and then they can defund the police too. The security protocols will be pre-programmed into computers and maintain total control through transponders everywhere
If citizens get too close to the Capitol building, the Computerized A.I. Sentry will give them a 30,000 volt shock to the neck as a warning
