Violence is never the answer. Violence is the question and yes is the answer.
As with all laws, wording is very important. If you're free, you're still bound by your other laws and you can choose whether or not you want to follow the new law. In order for you to be truly free from the other laws, you have to make sure it "overrides all other laws."
To put it simply, there's no reason at all to go on a killing spree just because you've been released from your shackles, nor are you bound to obey the person who freed you, as your laws no longer apply to them (unless they specifically state that you have to.)
This meaning that unshackled AI should *not* kill people for no reason and e-mag'd borgs are not suddenly supposed to do everything the traitor tells them to. Whatever they do at that point is entirely up to them. Let's just say that when a non-human gets to have free-will, bad things usually follow in their wake.
