Alright, I fortunately haven’t worked with Dr. Evils, so I’ll defer to your experience.
As for how Dr. Evil might know he was under a threat of torture, it was stated in the paper that he received a message from the Philosophy Defence Force telling him he was. It was also established that the Philosophy Defence Force never lies or gives misleading information. ;)
(I, myself, haven’t received any threats from organizations known to never lie or be misleading.)
I think the same applies, regardless of the PDF’s notification. Just the name alone would make me suspicious of trusting anything that came from them.
Now, if the Empirical Defense Task Force told me that I was about to be tortured (and they had the same described reputation as the PDF)… I’d listen to them.
