What ethics and laws are likely to emerge from a technological society that has had perfect simulations inhabited with conscious beings?

1. Afterlife ancestor peeping tom laws (most likely, most reasonable, most rational, what would you decide) tid:1294 (3) (hivelink)
   
2. Perhaps a strange monstrosity of beurocracy, regulations, laws, loopholes, and incompetence govern our simulation- as happens with most powerful institutions over time? tid:1285 (0) (hivelink)
   
3. Perhaps wanton cruelty is permitted by participants within the simulation but not by outsiders? tid:1284 (0) (hivelink)
   
4. If we can deduce likely laws perhaps information can be gained from testing those laws in some manner. tid:1283 (0) (hivelink)
