There is a 100% chance this tech will be used to surveil, subdue and repress people in draconian ways.
So exactly the same as in the USA and every other major developed nation in the world, then?
No, the opposite of what you stated.

You do realize that the US has a functioning justice system, and there is a difference between security and suppression?
You do realize the reality of the US justice system (and most of its systems) is not at all the same as the theory?
