You know what? "Socially responsible" is a joke.
There's never been a technology built in the history
of the world that was 'socially responsible.' People
are going to deal with climate change because their
ass is on fire and water is slopping over the windowsills.
- Bruce Sterling
The two most common elements in the universe are Hydrogen and Stupidity.
- Harlan Ellison
Commonly misquoted with "things" instead of "elements". Ellison is my god. If you haven't read any of his essay collections - vastly superior to his fiction - you are an ignorant schlub.
