You don't know that, and cannot know that.
Our industry loves to write CYA statements about the product not being intended to be used in critical situations and bury it in the fineprint of licenses we know customers do not ready anyways. Then, we act surprised when the same customers go and use the product in life or death situatioins.
This is not theoretical, just to highlight the most well known example: Our current generation of social media was created for the purpose of allowing college aged people in first world nations to share trivial details about their personal lives with friends and aquaintances. But now we see activists using the same media to organize civil resistance against governments; specially governments with huge stains in their human rights record.
