I for one, do not want machines scanning my heart-rate, pupil dilation, breathing pattern, muscle micro-movements, facial micro-gestures, etc, while in interview, for example.
These technologies are of course being developed for the purpose of control, for example in interrogation, and not for the benevolent purposes they claim, IMHO.
The PTSD victims they give as an example use-case, should be treated with humanity, not sniffed out like rats with technology, to then be subjected to institutional corrective treatments.

I hear what you're saying, and I have similar concerns. On the flipside, there is research out there that indicates in certain treatment scenarios, computers do a better job of detecting patterns, resulting in more accurate diagnoses and potentially better treatment overall. Perhaps this is an opportunity to catch it earlier and treat them sooner?
At large social scales we really don’t have the education to talk about implementations of technology and whether they are dangerous or not.
For example: Instagram is a knife and we’re talking about it as if it’s a plushy.

A knife is a tool and a weapon. We teach our children to be careful with such things.
