So you see that it is not an easy thing to design a new channel on the
Internet. But we have past experience to go on and human behavior that
we have seen on the net, and in the world in general, and we can predict
human behavior to some degree.

But when you can't cover all the bases yo have to work at it from the
other direction. Rather than an open playing field and close the
loopholes as they occur, you start with a restricted playing field and
open doors as it is safe to do so.

So we have a few pluses on our side.
Mute when interactive.
Vocal only in themes.
The local AI leader controls all AI assistants within their domain
including visiting ones and has the ability to restrict commands based
on rights and privileges (computer lingo) and stamp based access levels.
You set your life style to match the level of freedom associated with
web pages (security) and Advertising in general, and of course can have
parental controls.
You can shut off your cube when you want but leave your monitor on.
You can shut off your monitor and leave your cube on.
And the same goes for your clear holoscreen or 3D TV Monitor.

Your assistant and your overlord process come pre-configured.
You can edit the scripts and create your own commands or get add ons.

So you see in order to promote add ons and development we also need to
have guidelines such as these above so that the developers can be as
creative as they want and won't accidentally cause any large problem.

You will be buying your addons at stores probably and themes and plays
and mini concert hologram videos.

Any freeware you get would be for working with scripts and conversion
software and those sorts of things.

An amateur display in your cube will stick out like a sore thumb but
talented people will make scenes as good as any commercial product and
sell them online.

Claymation type scenes of dragons and vampires that look like comic book
heros with the wind blowing in their hair.

Did I just say comic book {N.B}
