If we had a reliable way to label our toys good or bad, it would be easy to label technology wisely. But we can rarely see far enough ahead to see which road leads to damnation. Who ever concerns himself with big technology, either to push it forward or to stop it, is gambling with human lives.
Freeman Dyson

It may be necessary temporarily to accept a lesser evil, but one must never label a necessary evil as good.
