What I find quite disturbing in all these privacy invading technologies is that they’re often marketed as fantastic problem solvers whereas the reality is that they have many confounding factors that put the innocent at risk. Even DNA testing is unreliable unless a lot of care is taken in the entire process.
The problem I see is that lawmakers and law enforcement want these to be taken as the gospel truth when obtained and provided as evidence in a court of law, while the judges or juries are usually not competent enough to understand the nuances and question the “evidence” to the extent necessary to not sentence an innocent person.
