Safeguard assumptions

Individual warrant or judicial authorization Narrow, purpose-limited scanning scope Deletion and retention limits Notice, appeal, and false-positive review Independent oversight and audit

Evaluate the assumptions to see the reasoning.

Assessment: turn off warrants and deletion, then compare the explanation. The changed safeguards should alter the interpretation.

Values persist locally.

Misconception: a warrant alone makes scanning harmless.
Correction: scope, retention, appeals, and oversight still shape risk.

Misconception: a high safety score proves legality.
Correction: this models preferences only; legal status needs current authoritative sources.
