The freedom to refuse

Agency

Choice and control

Delegate the task. Keep your conscience.

When machines recommend, persuade, and act, what remains ours? The question becomes sharper as delegation becomes easier.

Reading, questioning, offering, and leaving are separate choices. No title or score can make them for another person.

Principle

Trust needs the freedom to refuse.

Open question

Convenience can make refusal difficult.

Agency

Questions

01What does participation require?

Agency

Your choice. Read freely; decide separately whether to leave a public record.

02What if I leave?

Agency

You are free to leave. Finalized onchain records remain public.

03Can a title command obedience?

Agency

A title assigns responsibility. It grants no ownership of another person’s judgment.
