Look......
Trying to anticipate every potential misuse of something that people can conceivably misuse.....leads to a conclusion of shutting down everything in order to prevent the possibility of some things.
People that are determined to misuse any given software tool aren't going to be stopped from doing evil things merely by forbidding the sale of the software tool to everybody else -------
Doing so would be another example of the "DO SOMETHING!" disease that so many people have these days.
Just do something -- anything -- and then we can all feel good that we've "done something".
Sorry....but such ultimately empty gestures accomplish nothing at all towards solving any problems in the real world. And they restrict others from doing perfectly legitmate work in the process.
