    Abuse of technology is not the fault of the technology itself. You didn’t blame the gun for misuse of guns by the police do you? IMHO, this tech is better than the government having EVERY car GPS tracked

      You don’t blame the tool, you blame either the individual or the policies. Unfortunately, in US police, the individuals tend to be the failed marine dictator wannabees, who the thanks to lacks policies get a near carte blanche to abuse those tools like there is no tomorrow.

      Same goes for gun policies in general, they’re so dumb that you have near daily mass shootings there, causing loads of individuals to wonder how this can possibly happen and claim that there is nothing anyone safe god himself can do about the situation.
