> Any time someone invents something new and incredible, there's always a crowd of negative nancies eager to discredit and explain why the invention is nothing new and a detrement to society.

It is not true. Whenever there is something really useful, everybody is happy, and while of course they always are some nansayers, they're very few.

However, when you do something controversial, you can expect to hear criticism. You are of course free to dismiss that criticism, but when a lot of people are telling you what you are doing is unethical, maybe it's time to stop and think about it.
