I have always felt that, aside from research that violates universal human mores, when it comes to technological applications, that which can be done will be done.

The rise of a ubiquitous Internet, along with 24-hour news channels has, in some sense, had the opposite effect from what many might have hoped such free and open access to information would have had. It has instead provided free and open access, without the traditional media filters, to a barrage of disinformation.

We need to walk into the future, no matter how unnerving, with open eyes if society is to keep pace with technology.
