This is a BS cop out to avoid having to think about ethics.
Some tech is inherently good or bad. If you create platforms that spread misinformation and rage much more effectively than information and reason, you shouldn't be able to walk away saying "it's a neutral tool!"
- malvosenior 8y ago> Some tech is inherently good or bad. Not true. You might see a platform "spreading rage" as bad but to the people on the platform it's giving them a way to fight injustice (hence the rage -- what are they angry about). Tech connects people. You may not agree with those people but they'll be glad to have the platform.
