Apr 23, 2018 at 11:56 comment added Tom What do you mean, exactly, by "find out"? Some fringe conspiracy theory pointing to the truth, or global scientific consensus, or global social consensus (which is not the same) ?

Sep 3, 2015 at 20:25 comment added Damon The greater number of nations (who also happen to host the greatest number of people) do not even know how many people live in their country, and an unknown number of people -- thousands -- "disappear" in these locations every day (and nobody cares). So, how could there even be a chance of noticing?
Sep 3, 2015 at 19:27 comment added Cort Ammon An alternate phrasing for the death rules which may be better than defining a clinical death: Use Miracle Max's dead-dead definition: "the only thing they're good for is to rifle though their pockets for loose change." ;-)
Sep 3, 2015 at 19:12 comment added DaaaahWhoosh There are some philosophers who would argue you can never say with complete certainty that one thing caused another. I believe Sherlock Holmes would only accept a magical cause after ruling out all other options. So people might know what's going on, but the answer to why will take a lot more work, if it can ever be found.
Sep 3, 2015 at 19:07 comment added Dan Smolinske It's interesting to think about further reactions to people realizing this is happening - I foresee draconian birth rate laws, combined with global wars to enforce them. Which will in fact solve the problem, if not in exactly the expected manner.

Sep 3, 2015 at 18:57 comment added Pavel Janicek People are chosen randomly all over the world. And, as stated in the question: If you cannot kill because of heart attack, try to kill because of lung failure. And if you cannot kill because of lung failure, turn off their brain
Sep 3, 2015 at 18:53 comment added HDE 226868 Are people randomly chosen from different locations and age groups?

Sep 3, 2015 at 18:47 comment added Tyrabel How would the randomly chosen people die ? Always with an heart attack like in your example or not ? A heart attack plague could help them understand what's happening (They do in Death Note).
