“The Impossible Mission Force has the technical capabilities to copy anyone’s face and imitate their voice, so don’t base your secops around someone’s appearance.”

… yes, because that worked well.

Just to be clear, Mission Impossible is not a documentary.

It is however, a lower bound on whether it is the case that something is a reasonably forseeable/precedented area of research.

After all, if the artist can imagine and build a story around it, there'll be an engineer somewhere who'll go "Ah, what the hell, I could do that."

*By Golblum/Finnagle's Law, it is guaranteed said Engineer will not contemplate whether they should before implementing it, and distributing it to the world.

This another example of why we can't have nice things.
