Re: RICO act

to stop law enforcement agents lying to them

That may be true, and the functionality may've been included with somewhat innocent intentions (yes yes, I know still talking about Uber here...) but...

It would be illegal. LEA are supposed to lie. It is their job, and their reason for being. To your face, to the judge in a court case, as they fabricate evidence against an innocent person who looked at their wife/daughter/son the wrong way, target someone who had the audacity to pass them perfectly legally when said LEA was dawdling, lying when they issue for the ticket for the car being unsafe in some manner (even if it was perfectly intact and safe moments before the cop arrived and, er, adjusted it with his baton).

Cops lie, that's what they do. Anyone who tries to keep them to the truth can expect to find out just how corrupt the rest of the "justice" system is as well. You might get away with it for a while, but they will come.
