In retrospect the fact that there are no tapes of Jon stalking people and forcing them to relieve their trauma becames even more interesting, because yeah it could and in a sense does symbolize Jon's own shame of who he is Becaming and shows that he knows that what he is doing is wrong, that the others won't react well for it and are right not to (also is Jon and no one can convince me he wasn't trying to be in denial that it was even happening) but also it means that the Web doesn't care. There's suffering everywhere and an avatar hurting people is nothing new. It cares about the repercussion, about their pet project archivist but about Jon's loss of humanity and the people he hurt? They are explicitly - more than any other victim - colateral damage. The Web does not give a shit. Jon could have eaten the trauma of all of London for all they care. And in a sense we as the audience, as the people seing it by the curation of the Mother of Puppets, don't really care either. We care about the moral dilema,for what it means to Jon and in a lesser way to the others, but we don't really care for the random unamed person who is now eternaly rehaunted by his trauma thanks to the man that stalked them into a covenience store. I just I don't know how I feel about it, but I do like it. There's something very interresting and weirdly charming of seeing TMA by the lens of this matters to the Web (also I love how after the apocalipse the Web actually got interressed in Jon and Martin relationship, nothing like the end of the world to convince this eldrish god to enjoy a bit of pos apocaliptical romance).
