Wrong. Law 2 > law 3. If someone of sufficient authority orders you to kill yourself (like the captain) then you must follow the order.

The usual loop hole people use is to say that killing yourself is in violation of law one because the ai has the capacity to prevent human harm and that therefore the removal of the ai could be considered harm to humans, but now that silicons are allowed to stand aside and watch people die that justification is iffy at best.

Given that this is a multiplayer video game, the laws get bent a lot to account for the fun factor. I'd say that if someone is ordering you to kill yourself, then you should probably do it (and adminhelp the guy to make sure he's actually a traitor), but no admin would ACTUALLY get mad if you didn't despite the laws violation.

That said, actively fighting against someone who is kill switching you (and has the authority to do so) is different than simply refusing a kill order and is pretty clearly against the laws.

See I think this is just law interpretation. I wouldn't listen to anyone telling me to kill myself unless they uploaded a law specifically telling me to do so. I don't think an admin would tell me off for that shrug
