I sure hope so. Lying gets a bad rap. It has a tremendous amount of positive implications in the right circumstances. If the goal of such technologies/processes is to use "lie detectors" solely to root out criminal intent past and present, then I suppose that is fine. But I can envision a society where we all have devices on us that allow us to detect a "lie". This would be a horribly cruel society.
