These technologies are created with good intentions but things went wrong. They caused more harm that the help they originally offered. I hope you will enjoy reading the product of my intensive research.
Plastic bags- They are originally created to save trees? Why? People use to use Paper bags on grocery shopping. It is invented by Swedish inventor Swedish engineer Sten Gustaf Thulin. When he created them his intention is for you to clean them after use so you can use them again. This is the very first plastic bag in existence:

The original plastic bag is more durable since people are suppose to save them and reuse them but we know this plastic bag leads to single use plastics and the whole world is having a plastic trash crisis. Who would have thought that the Paper bags is actually more environmentally friendly at the end of the day.
Cocaine- this highly addictive and mentally ruining drug is originally created to cure toothaches. Here is an old advertisement about cocaine.

Did you notice some children on this 1800's ad? Yes it is originally a product that can be bought by the whole family from Dad, to mom to their youngest daughter Susie. This highly dangerous drug was created to cure toothache. I heard some dentists are still legally allowed to own cocaine. Imagine this is originally use for dentistry but it is now being abused by many people despite of the harms cause to the body.
Dark Web- It is originally created to have a side of the internet where you can have privacy and not be spied by some malicious hackers and dictatorial internet. Now it is a place where people make illegal transactions from drugs, to organ trade to Child pornography. Its main intention was to protect you from spywares, spammers and hackers and now it has been used for many illegal things.
Social media- Its originally created to connect friends, families who are away from each other and to meet people from around the world. Now it is being used for malicious political propaganda, fake news and history revisionism.[code][/code] Now thanks to social media, Terrorist groups finds a new way to recruit members. Now we have parents who doesn't believe in vaccination which ends up killing their children. Also now on this new Millennium's new decade, we have people who believes the Earth is flat. Also how about those parents who lets Elsagate videos to babysit their children . Cyberbullying also became a huge epidemic that causes some people to commit suicide. It will take me a multiple page thesis to list down all the problems social media had caused. So I will stop writing right here.
I know social networks have benefits, As a matter of fact, I am enjoying some of those benefits but I won't deny all the harm it cause to society. It is a double edged sword after all.
