I am very pro-AI (although I do think we need to have a culture of caution) but this is another red-alert for democracy. People should be terrified if the president is able to make you into a state enemy just because you said you are against some technology.

  A few weeks ago they made some Italian group into sanctioned terrorists because, get this, they hosted email and blogs without being rich.
