Like watching a movie you already watched? Having no perceived control over one’s actions?

Yea that’s called depersonalization…

I know of a case in a German university where something like that was dealt with quietly and internally.

But your argumentation structure is flawed. It would be better to argue what an organization ought to do and how that is legally and ethically justified than to argue that every organization would call the cops.

I mean your argumentation boils down to your own ignorance (I don’t know of any case ergo it is impossible/improbable) or hand waving that it is obvious. That is not convincing Argument imho even if what you are arguing for is correct. Which I don’t believe just to be clear.

Depends on the author.

Yup it is contrary to normal economic principles, read up on luxury goods and in particular veblen goods and how price finding works there.

In the end humans are not at all times rational. There is no homo economicus. Economics is as much math as it is a social study.

I mean if your goal is to normalize this then this is the way to go.
