If this happens to multiple CEOs, companies will just implement secret-service style security for the C-suite. Wouldn’t even be a rounding error in CEO compensation.

Nah, the US will just provide secret service details to any and all C level execs.

We really are just a few years away from Cyberpunk, aren’t we? I’d actually say a mix of both that, and Cloud Atlas’ last timeline.

Sounds like the miserable existence they deserve.

I mean having to live in a fortress and being afraid to go into a coffee shop without armed guards is no way to live… it wouldn’t be a fun time for those poor, sociopathic bastards. But I guess having those extra digits in their bank accounts makes up for it?

They have the money to hire a 24/7 coffee shop on their private island. I don’t think it’s so bad for them.

Living in fear with constant security has to be better than just treating people better, right?

they legit just send out the interns to go get coffee, so much that it’s a trope at this point. these people barely raise their own fucking kids, they don’t give a shit about any of those like, minor pleasures. they have cocaine, and other rich people who are constantly willing to kiss each other’s ass in a big circle, human centipede ouroborous style.

they already do that shit. elon already has a pretty big security retinue and his ass almost never goes out in actual public anymore, only ever hosts private events with verified people and pretty good security. most CEOs and billionaires aren’t gonna be that paranoid, but most of them don’t have to be, and they already tend to live in totally different contexts than your average person.

what I’d be more interested in knowing is how this guy figured out that this particular guy was going to be outside this particular hotel at this particular time. this wasn’t a crime of pure opportunity, this was something which seems like it was probably planned in advance. if it was publicly accessible where this guy was going, that’s a much easier and cheaper thing for businesses and CEOs to solve, and is probably the most important part of this kind of security.
