Is that actually the FAI's only or best technique?

Off the top of my non-amplified brain:

Reward Fred for not torturing kittens.

Give Fred simulated kittens to torture and deny Fred access to real kittens.

Give Fred something harmless to do which he likes better than torturing kittens.

ETA Convince Fred that torturing kittens is wrong.
