Police are instructed to pander to the weaknesses and craven motives of friends and acquaintances of suspects, in order to induce them to inform. . . . These practices are at war with the constitutional standards of privacy . . . [and] make it possible for the government to use, willy-nilly, son against father, nephew against uncle, friend against friend, to undermine the sanctity of the most private and confidential of all conversations. . . . [W]e face the stark reality that the walls of privacy have broken down and all the tools of the police state are handed over to our bureaucracy on a constitutional platter. . . .
