This is great, thanks! I always always said that if you are worried about FAI, you should look into what people do with unfriendly non-human agents running around today. I am glad constitutional law people have looked into this.
Well yeah. I don’t approve of working for the capitalist hell-monster, and I don’t think it has mercy on its better servants, but I also don’t have any illusions about what almost everyone ever has done and still does to survive long enough to get old.
Brazil is basically the biography of the 20th century. Brazil counts as fictional evidence about as much as Darkness at Noon (the events in that book did not literally happen, but...) The scariest thing about Brazil is that it is not strange at all, it is too familiar.

That’s a very interesting way of looking at the 20th century: humanity spent the first part building, tearing down, and rebuilding again its vast institutional artifices that are not always human-friendly. We then spent the very end and entered into the 21st century trying to tame them without having to kill large numbers of people on a regular basis.

Forgive my cynicism, but the answer mostly appears to be, “work in their employment”.
Have you ever seen Brazil (the movie)? You will still get eaten.
