> You can't solve social problems with technology.
Sure we can. Every time people make subversive technology, it literally changes the world and its power structures. Computers are the ultimate example of subversive technology, they can make a mockery of courts and police using nothing but mathematics. It's really no wonder they want to control computing by only allowing us to run signed software, it's too subversive otherwise.
Every time new technology shows up, they have to increase their tyranny in order to maintain the same level of control they used to enjoy. Just assume anyone using such technology is guilty? Sounds like tyranny to me. The next step is to get everyone to use the technology so they can't just assume that. At some point we'll find their limits. We'll end up with either an uncontrollable population or a totalitarian government.
