Useless? To whom? This is being run by the government. It will provide the advice the government desires it to provide. It will collect the information the government chooses to collect.

In principle this could lead to an ideal outcome, but that presumes that all controlling parties have consistent good will and excellent foresight. Not something I expect of any entity.

Descartes started off looking for his axioms. He settled on "I think therefore I am", but if you believe that was his only axiom, you reasoning is faulty. That, by itself, can't justify choosing between solipism and predeterminism, never mind the other possibilities.

I don't know enough about Kant to be able to specifically refute your assertion that he's an example, but since I'm already disagreeing with Descartes I suppose I may also be disagreeing with Kant. I'm NOT disagreeing with Euclid, and anyone who does had better be able to explain why if they want me to take them seriously.

It's not just up to them, it's up to copyright law.
And why do you think you speak for all book authors over all time?

People like you think libraries should be shut down, fair use removed, and no one allowed to resell a book they read.
Literally the logical conclusion to your post.
