Apple is now a law enforcement agency (no, seriously)

The Register: Apple sued in nightmare case involving teen wrongly accused of shoplifting, driver's permit used by impostor, and unreliable facial-rec tech Theft spree repeatedly blamed on wrong guy – lawsuit

Oh yay...

Private company can do whatever it wants.
