That isn't what it is! That's like pointing at a 3d printer and calling it a gun manufacturing station. Sure, it can be used for that, but you're throwing the baby out with the bathwater here.

Not sure exactly how serious you are, but you can use a 3D printer without making guns. You cannot use cameras like these in public without massively invading people's privacy.
