      One of the worst take I hear constantly is, "technology is neutral, neither good or evil, it's just a tool". The design of a tech product -- algorithms, interfaces -- modulates who it will empower and who it won't. It alters prior power dynamics.

      The thousands of choices that go into a tech product define what can be done with it, who has access to it, what incentives it creates, etc. If it has an impact, then this impact has a moral direction. If it's "neutral", it probably doesn't actually do anything.

          Whenever I hear "it's just a tool", I know that person has never thought about what it *means* to have an impact on the world...

          This question re tech is a version of the same question regarding human nature.

          Agreed. The choices we take to create the tool and the intent and purpose with which we bring the tool to life almost gives the tool some sort of a “spirit” of what it’s meant to be and how it will serve or disserve humanity.

          Is #Twitter good, evil, or neutral? 🤔
