6. Mixed feelings.

I don't like murder, but I'm not big on blocking tech either as it will no doubt be abused to block other things. And what you can use to scan then block, you can use to scan then charge a fee for stuff, or AI can ID whatever you scan and then report it... Report you.

You need reporting infrastructure to catch people before they use what they scan. If you don't know they scanned it, you won't be able to prevent much muder, just add extra minor possession with intent charges to a murder case.

And, it's tech. It will get hacked, modded, and sold quickly. AI will assist.

So, mixed feelings.
