New technologies, like any tools, are neutral; it's the users who determine their purpose. The example of pagers in the 1980s, initially a communication tool, being exploited by drug dealers illustrates this duality.
Similarly, #Bitcoin, designed for decentralized and transparent transactions, can be misused for ransomware. Blaming the tool overlooks individual responsibility.
Regulation and education should focus on ethical use rather than restricting technology. Emphasizing responsible usage fosters a balance where innovations can flourish without being unduly restricted, acknowledging that technology's impact relies heavily on the intent and actions of its users.
