Re: What technological advance has caused more harm than good?
That is a very interesting answer. I must have taken it for granted that there were no inventions used almost purely for harm. I wonder if gunpowder really did increase the death rate. Does anyone have any statistics on percentages of populations that died in pre-gunpowder wars? I know that something like 10% of the populations of Germany and Russia were killed during World War II.
