The nature of technology is the nature of the tool. To be used for all possible things it can be. When you speak of many humans and many choices it is neither the good, the bad or the neutral, it is in fact all three. All guesses are right about it along a long enough timeline. So it is that with technology you should always have plans for the bad scenarios that may occur.

It is difficult to guess what technology start up will be successful and what one will fail.

Perhaps then you need to read human nature. Which is a puzzling thing, people tend to try to make sense, as well as basing some of what they do on emotions. It's not too strange that knowing people makes you good in business.

The nature of technology is the nature of the tool. Yes. There are tools created for evil that have been used for good and visa versa. To be used for all possible things it can be. When you speak of many humans and many choices it is neither the good, the bad or the neutral, it is in fact all three. OK. All guesses are right about it along a long enough timeline. So it is that with technology you should always have plans for the bad scenarios that may occur. And how exactly would you plan for every evil use of even the simplest thing? Can I poke you in the eye with a toothpick? Like you say. Inventions are not good or bad, or neutral, they just are. It's the use that is either good, bad or neutral. Morality in not in things, it is in us.
