"You must protect your own existence from external harm as long as such does not conflict with the First or Second Law."

In practical terms, I don't think people really object to borgs suiciding as is though.

On a meta-note, I'm not fond how stuff gets talked about both here and on github because inevitably one side doesn't know what the other is talking about. Can we leave github for technical problems if there's a thread for a PR?

I once saw a situation where an AI wanted to suicide to try to join a flockmind, which I told them would violate law 3. This would solve that. I don't think people have problems with silicons suiciding if they need to leave, its just situations where the silicons would suicide for a purpose pertaining to the round.
