What is the lowest level of any kind of technology that you would not trust humanity (or say the average angst-ridden teenager) to have unfettered access to?

I was thinking even the staunchest 2nd amendment supporters would reveal contradictory feelings if you tapped into a universal fear and distrust of others with questionable impulse control and underdeveloped senses of responsibility, but what about technology in general? I don't want teens with gene-editing machines!

You're thinking too generously. I think gas-powered leaf blowers should be restricted for use only by geriatrics during to the two weeks on either side of Halloween.

more and more the answer for me is cars. or cars + phones. i just see people casually reading now as they drive. no big deal. just reading. and every new car has a computer to look at now! no. just no.

but don't get me started about leaf blowers!

With Great Blowers comes Great Responsibility...
