It’s well past time to start considering the moral implications of this technology. For instance, do we as human beings have a fundamental right to privacy; and, if so, does the use of this technology violate that right? Does using this technology make us safer, or better off in some other way; and, if so, do these benefits outweigh any potential costs?
