That is simply not true. There is lots of bad technology.

who gets to decide which technology must be banned? the same people who decide which books must be burned?

Like what? There's no technology that simply by existing causes harm to the world, people do that part.

People create that technology, therefore enforcing their own lack of morals and lack of ethics onto it. That's the part that most humans in the post-digital age seem to ignore to purposefully deflect and absolve themselves from any responsibilities.

Also, companies will always be controlled by humans that optimized their life for greed, not by the ones that specialized on philosophical implications.

The inventors of novichok or the nuclear bomb didn't have "world peace" in mind. They had "world peace through me enforcing my own will onto my enemies" in mind.

I don't know about Novichok, but nuclear bombs have stopped world wars, at least so far.

like that chemical weapon that was specifically designed to react with gas mask absorbent materials so to activate at the protected side so to circumvent filteration(long banned since the end of WWI).
