A rambling article in today's CIOL notes "the terror strike on Mumbai has once again brought to the fore how technology, especially in the communication front, is being used for anti-social, or to be precise antihuman, activities."

The article melodramatically shrieks "a terrorist can safely use a satellite phone or even a micro blogging system to implement the mission of terror".

While you're at it, blame pen and paper, telephones and traditional mail. Oh, and even blame talking, because that's also a form of communication. This is one of the stupidest tries to blame everything on technology. Why not point out the real reasons, like religion?
