"Hey, we're a vastly powerful organization that can make your life a living hell for as long as we see fit. But, we can make use of you, so just sign over your free will to us and somewhere down the line we'll let you go, how does that sound?"
Or even, as one 'woman on the street' said, "Hey, we could ease all those troubles you're having. You don't have to pay rent, or study, or work, and you'll spend your time partying with rich people. Here's the dotted line." While left out is the crime you might commit, the appetites you might end up satisfying, and any number of other uses you might be put to.
So you sign. It's all legal and binding that you've consented. Because you aren't a 'person' anymore, your identity has been taken out of you, your body and your subconscious go through 'assignments' not of your choosing and no one considers whether it might harm you, beyond irreparable physical damage that would limit your use. It's selfish, dehumanizing abuse.
"Imagine this technology exists. Now imagine it being used on you."
And that is black and white.
