How would you 'constrain' them if they are free to create technology that bypasses or remove those same constraints?

[KuriousCat]

Deployment constraints. There is no need to constrain the development or research.

[MichaelZuo]

So then people can't have agency or freedom to bypass those 'deployment constraints' right?

[KuriousCat]

I am not sure where you are going with this. If there is a politician/a company that has developed mass surveillance or manipulation tech I would not want them to have the freedom to bypass the 'deployment constraints'.

[MichaelZuo]

Picking what types of agency people/organizations must have and what types they must not have is a pretty shaky endeavour, philosophically. It might not even be possible to prevent 'cross contamination'.
