A responce to this by a barrister friend of mine. Re-phrased because I don't remember it verbatim:
"We've only been trying technological solutions for the past hundred years and look at what they've achieved. We've been trying political solutions for thousands of years."
Though, I agree that we need to be aware of the limitations we and our systems impose on technical solutions. That said, perhaps we should play to our strengths?
- ernst_klim 9y ago>We've only been trying technological solutions for the past hundred years and look at what they've achieved Holocaust, Nazi Science, Atomic bombs, Stalin's industrialization, mass surveillance, cold war? Man, 20-th century was such a mess, technology only made that mess more messy, and good stuff was achieved by political discussion, dialog, not because of new technologies (although technologies makes both dialog and murdering much easier)
