Recently i found out that there is such thing as 3D printer. I thought it was really cool but seconds later i realized that it can cause problems. This guy in Texas found out how to make guns that can actually kill people by 3D printer. If 3D printer becomes common, basically everyone can make guns because this idiot posted how to make it on his blog.
What do you guys think? Is technology always a good thing?

There's such thing as a 3D printer!! I wanna see it! It seems cool!! But I guess there's always negatives to technology. Like smartphones, they are really useful and fun to play with but there has been so many studies that smartphones make us dumber and less social. I hope 3D printers don't cause that much trouble!

I saw that APIS has 3D printers. It really does seem cool but as always technology has good and bad sides. I heard someone made a dress with a 3D printer too.

It's hard to say whether technology is bad or not. It's just that there are some people who always seek ways to use it for crime or other unethical reasons. Incidents like those prove that technology shouldn't be open for everyone.

I think it depends on people. we cannot blame technology for bad things because it is all human made and made for confidence in our society. However, if people starts to use technology for bad sides, it causes problem. So I don't think technology is bad thing.

to me yes but i think in general it depends on who and how technology is being used. which is similar to hackers with their computer and it is a technology so that my answer.

I think it's good til we use it properly and don't take advantage of it. I think it becomes a problem when people start to overuse it, using it for crimes. So I think the thing is good itself, but the problem is the people.

Technology is the reason why mankind achieved so much this far. After the Industrial Revolution, people evolved into a higher form of evolution. And since then we've gained access to all new kind of unimaginable stuffs. Everything has its fault and yes, if its being misused, it can lead off to all kinds of danger as well.

I think new technology come with both pros and cons. Everything does. It all depends on how people manage it. I think if anything is taken advantage of, it can create chaos. Nothing should be taken advantage of.

Yeah, I saw this on the news about a month ago. I think it is scary that anyone can create a gun in an instant. Plus, since it is made out of plastic, it is not detectable under security check. This makes countries like South Korea start to worry because they have strict laws against bearing arms. Thus, technology is not always a good thing. For example, technology such as cellphones has made us distant from being one with nature.

I think technology is both a good and bad thing. I think it depends on how people choose to use it.

Oh yea, I heard about this 3D printer thing last year. I guess technology isn't always a good thing. Can't believe a guy printed out a gun out of a printer. I hope he didn't hurt anyone

I doubt the technology is advanced enough to create working guns but if it ever does reach that, then we'd have a problem. But not a lot of people would have access to a 3D printer anyways so I'm not worried. If it can print out clothes and food, it could solve a lot of problems in the world. Also cause I like cute outfits and food.
