We can blame HN for providing social engineering tools to make this status permanent, even in a society in decline?

- A4ET8a8uTh0 4y agoWe can, but it does not seem like a useful thing to do. Do we blame hammer makers for making better hammers?
- ajago 4y agoI think a better analogy would be do we blame weapons manufacturers for making better weapons? Or, do we blame black hats for making better viruses?
- A4ET8a8uTh0 4y agoSure, but the point remains the same and it does not really change the validity of the argument itself. Weapons manufacturers have one goal and that one goal is satisfied by creating a better weapon. Even viruses have found somewhat unexpected uses ( stuxnet comes to mind ).
