This sounds like a prequel to the show Psycho-Pass.

[โ€“] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago

Psycho-Pass raises a lot of interesting questions and dilemmas because the technology depicted actually works in that setting (aside from a few outlying cases that help drive interesting plots). If there was a scanner of some sort that actually genuinely could detect violent intention before it was acted on then I think it would be reasonable and moral to use it in at least some manner.
