I can use a knife to open a box or open a person. Are these things the same because I used the same tool?

I'm not American so I don't know the tools ICE uses and if social listening or whatever it is called is one of those tools. But if your reasoning for opening the box and the reasoning for opening the person is the same.. well it's the same. Different outcomes, same reason
