At common law, a man's servant could not testify against him since the servant was considered to be an "extension" of the man. (Part of this survives in the prohibition against spouses testifying against each other.) An argument against this will begin from Fifth Amendment grounds. Who knows where it will end....

Machinery (and drug-sniffing dogs) do not "testify," they merely provide data to be interpreted.
