IMO, the "AI" part of this story is just a distraction.

The real story is going after people for protesting and voicing their opinion. A clear move towards authoritarianism and potentially fascism. Seems like it touches 4 of "The 14 Characteristics of Fascism" : https://ratical.org/ratville/CAH/fasci14chars.html

(1,2,7,12 and maybe 10?)
