Prevent a new techonoloy from being abused

When a new technology improves our quality of life, its unethical abuse may also causes big problems. Therefore researchers need to consider social effect before they practice a wide-scale use of a new technology. In order to prevent their work from unethical abuse, researchers need to put efforts on predicting and minimizing potential misuse of a new technology.
To predict and minimize the potential abuse of a technology, firstly we need to predict who will control this technology; who will be affected by this technology after it is released. What is the incentive of the controller to use this technology; whether it can control this technology in a safe and ethical using scale? What is possible effect of the technology? Is the negative side of its effect controllable? Are those who may be affected, including not only human beings but also other species and the environment, vulnerable to the potential harm? Is there any protection that can be provided for them? All of these questions need to be answered before researchers release a new technology so that they can predict the possible problems and try to make them up or came up with protecting plan.
Besides prediction of possible problems, rules and policies during practice are crucial of preventing unethical abuse. A good series of rules and policies can guide the use of the technology to a way that benefit people and minimize the potential harm. A new technology should be practiced within a fully considered and strict system, which is built before it is officially released. Only in this way, can we guarantee that the use of the technology is under our control and will not be abused by someone for unethical purpose.
We create a new technology to benefit ourselves; therefore we should try our best to avoid negative effects of it. Making a careful prediction of a technology’s future and establishing a sophisticated system as well as setting strict rules can help prevent it from being unethically misused. Even though we cannot perfectly avoid abuse, we should take whatever proper action to reduce the probability of being harmed by a new technology.
