Meh, the evil was usually based on humans.
Steve Bannon made a lot of gold selling virtual wow gold, but even worse he learned how toxic and impressionable young male gamers were. Which lead to Gamergate and the radicalizing of a lot of the current generation…
If anything, Gile was underestimating the dangers.

On that note, can’t wait for another season of black mirror. (it’s not the technology that is evil, but can easily be used for evil)

This applies to all technology.
A hammer can be used to build. It can also be used to bludgeon someone’s skull. It’s about who is wielding it and how they choose to use it.
