Is technology killing ethics or not?

I want others to discuss this topic

In many case technology always kills ethics.

E.g.

1) orkut-Many unwanted communities are there which degrades the human society.

2) Cellphone-Allready many ppl knew this

3) Internet

4) Nuclear energy-instead of using it a useful one we try to make wepons and bombs

5) Network-Hacking, piracy etc

6) Media- FTV, WWF, political party channels, movies.

I don't think technology is solely responsible for the degradation of ethics in today's world. It depends on the person who is making use of that technology. If every single person's mind moved on the same evil track, then by now, this world would have become hell. We can’t blame technology coz it doesn't have the artificial intelligence to change the face of the planet.

In My point of view the world always doesn’t fits to the topic because technology was helping people to make their life easy and safe some people use those technologies illegally to fulfill their needs. The first example that orkut was very useful to chat and converse with friends but some people use it badly but not all. Secondly the cell phone helps much more to people to communicate anywhere, anytime and makes life so easy and also there are surgery done using sms by some doctors that we heard already and some terrorists use it for their communication purpose. With the introduction to the internet communication has been improved drastically never before and some people are hacking and spamming on internet. Like these every technology has a strong point and a disadvantage. But disadvantage is very less when compared to the advantage. So it doesn’t mean that technology is always killing ethics but it may be sometimes not always.
