That is such an unnecessary turn of phrase to use, "off the reservation", and it's time to stop using it. This society doesnt (generally) use rape terminology, or other terms associated with crime, deviancy, or other unpleasantness to talk about technology, so why do phrases stemming from Indigenous situations still persist?
