Samantha and Jamal, both PhD candidates in cybernetics, cuddled on a couch while watching a holo-stream sponsored by AI-driven interactive commercials:
"Hello. I'm Dominique, an AI representative for Forever Lens Inc. For decades, law enforcement agencies have contracted with us to 'traverse time' and track criminal activity, which is why global crime rates are at a historic low."
"Uh, time travel is illegal," responded Jamal.
"You're right, Jamal! It's punishable by retroactive death. But our technology allows us to peer into the past from any perspective."

"So, what's the point if you can't do anything about it?" asked Samantha.
"Excellent question, Samantha! For example, we can help you sue those who caused you harm. Say someone hit-and-run-dented your hover-pod or slandered you, causing 'Social Points' grievances. Perhaps their misbegotten behavior is the product of a failed upbringing or bullying by childhood peers. We can identify the culprit and all those responsible."
"And do what?" Jamal shrugged.
"We're here for you! Our legal team is standing by to get you compensation from all parties involved in any wrongdoing."
"I can't think of anything right now ..." Samantha glanced at Jamal, who nodded.
"That's okay! Please feel free to contact us anytime! Because at Forever Lens Inc., any time is the right time!"
