I find this really sad actually Is it really so difficult to imagine how people will use (or misuse) tools you build? Are HNers or tech people in general just very idealistic and naive? Maybe I'm the problem though. Maybe I'm a bad person that is always imagining how many bad ways I would abuse any kind of system or power that I can, even though I don't have any actual intention to actually abuse systems | ||

> Are HNers or tech people in general just very idealistic and naive? Most of us are terminally online and/or in a set of concentric bubbles that makes us completely oblivious to most of the real world. You know the quote about "If the only tool you have is a hammer, ..." it's the same thing here for software. | ||
