Research with caution. (Guidelines/laws maybe?)

[d33]

You never know how the product of research is going to be used. How do you imagine laws trying to solve that?

[chiefalchemist]

Laws? We don't need laws. We need researchers (and their underwriters) with ethics, foresigh, and a sense of responsibility and morals.

The standard cop out "Oh. I'm / we're responsible for how X is used" is irresponsible. History shows us that.

We don't need laws. We simply need accountablity. It's not rocket science ;)

Maybe we did know but were made to forget.
