I don't know what CJIS requirements entail precisely, but at a first glance, they seem reasonable. But it's weird that people then think they can comply by installing a product with a disclaimer against their intended use. It's just a token acknowledgment: "Yeah, we've read it, but we don't really care."

If that's also the interpretation of the courts, then each company would be invidivually liable, at least towards the government.
