It is not. We have a great judicial system and technology has always favored innocent to prove their innocence rather than it's absence. More Technology => More Evidence => More chance of acquittal of the innocent. Technology also helps deter and catch crime It's really sad that these psuedo-privacy and soft-on-crime policies are destroying America far greater than imaginary oppression dreamed up by privileged white sitting comfortably in their homes with cushy jobs.

> We have a great judicial system and technology has always favored innocent to prove their innocence rather than it's absence. None of this has been true for a very long time. Wrongly accused almost always take a plea deal these days. If you don't have money for a fancy lawyer, you're almost certainly taking a plea deal whether you did it or not. This is spoken like someone who has never had any dealings with police or the legal system. All that said, I don't know what any of that has to do with my original comment. OP said > We need to dismantle the tools that can be used to oppress the masses and you replied > Do you have evidence that this tool is used to oppress masses in the US? can be was the original qualifier. Is doesn't matter. Can be matters. You don't give a baby a loaded gun and then say "but is it currently shooting you?". There's no logical argument that a government could not possibly under any circumstance be physically capable of misusing this, so "It is not" is false.
