For sure, there's a line in Ecclesiastes : "he who breaks through a wall may be bitten by a snake". We have no idea what snakes await us beyond the next few years, but like nuclear power, the internet, and even social media (which IMO is toxic to large swathes of the population today) we'll eventually arrive at a place where we can harness the blessings while controlling the risks. The first nation to align their laws to a sane governance model will reap the most rewards.
