A democratic republic is a representative democracy.

Some of the universities mentioned in the article are public institutions. SCOTUS held in Healy v James that the 1st Amendment applies to public universities. So some of the actions could be considered 1st Amendment violations.

Except these restrictions prevent speech, not harm.

That's a false dilemma. There's a middle ground between allowing only approved speech and allowing any speech whatsoever. And we already make that distinction. Fascists don't believe in free speech and threaten the rights of others through threats of violence, which isn't protected speech. Likewise fraud, libel, slander, blackmail, false advertising, and CSAM aren't protected and are considered harmful.

Driving predictably. Millions of people do it every day and it prevents accidents, which saves lives.

If I have to wait for an employee to unlock an item, I'm just buying it somewhere else, whether it's online or another brick and mortar that doesn't make me beg to spend money there. Same with stores that have passcode locks on their bathroom doors. I'm not asking a retail worker for permission to pee.

Referencing people whose communication styles are notoriously difficult to understand for average people is not great support for your point.

Backup ASAP as thoroughly possible and accept you'll probably need to start over. Schedule backups more often in the future as a lesson learned.

Add time tracking for time tracking with every other task.

I'm guessing a language that the device doesn't have a proper font for.

To be fair, it's kind of funny how humans can basically trust in a deity they've never seen and really just trust other humans who claim to know the truth because they learned it from other humans who also basically just said "trust me, bro." The AI here is just imitating human speech, so it's more a reflection of humans.
