Technology is neither good nor bad, it is neutral. How new technologies are used, however, depends on the people who reify them. We can apply them in ways that are helpful, harmful, or more often both.

It is incumbent on us to figure out how to implement and regulate new tech so that it appeals to the better angels of our nature, rather than encouraging the atavistic Hobbes-ian instincts which successful societies must overcome.
