I wonder if this ends up being more like lockpicks in practice. It's legal to own lockpicks but some jurisdictions consider possessing a lockpick to be prima facie intent to commit crime.



That at least heads toward rationality. Something along the lines of if you are caught with a flipper zero during the commission of a crime AND the flipper zero was used to further it then it becomes a "burglary tool" or some such classification.

Edit: typo... Again
