A tool is just a tool, and any tool can be a weapon. You can use a hammer to build a house, or remove a person from a house. You can cook food, or cook a man alive with fire. A gun can feed you, or kill for you. Objects, ideas, things have no morality to them, we assign morality to them with our action.
Ultimately any decision you make about a tool, or idea is just a reflection of what you see in people. Assuming a tool will be used kill, hurt, or harm mean that's all you expect of people. The realization of that made me want to see the good in people, and trust that when given secrecy more people would rather use it to better themselves, and those around them, then hurt harm their brothers and sisters.
