Come now, legality of things changes in jurisdiction, and depends on
how you're using it. There is a whole computerised poker team at a
Canadian university, for example, who I am pretty confident aren't
acting against the law.

Trying to teach computers how to play poker is an interesting,
complicated problem (and a very difficult one).

Many people are using Tesseract for numberplate recognition, and
other surveillance systems, which (while often legal) I have much more
of a problem with.

We just have to accept that free software may be used in ways we
don't approve of, and hope and trust in other people to act well.
