What an insane dystopia we are building

I'm sure police won't abuse their new toy like every previous thing they are given

The article itself reads like a PR piece against democratic oversight and pro-police. For example:

> The new system has its detractors who worry about an “acoustic assault.”

> They’re on their way to an emergency with the siren blaring, but a driver fails to clear the path for the police cruiser.

An "emergency", you see.
