Yes, but there's always a loophole, just like Godel said.  And the
same technology that is used against one side can be used to
infiltrate and surveil them.  The size of who uses it doesn't matter
that much with regard to infotech, because infotech amplifies the
BRAIN of the wielder, whereas miltech amplifies the WILL.  And we all
know who has the bigger brain.
