I'm torn between arguments that argue for government regulation and those that argue against it when it comes to emerging technologies. My idealistic self sees a future in which these technologies are regulated and limited to a set of ethical norms and rules created by the people (or by lawmakers with public interest in mind). Taking the corporate control/profits out of the process of technology innovations and its integration with society is a great vision to me. Yet given the current captured state of pretty much every single government agency, this feels like a pipe dream.

When it comes to emerging technologies, I favor minimal legal regulation but strong social regulation. What we really need more of are opportunities to say, "We're not playing."
Right. And what we're doing at WantToKnow is meaningful because we're providing education that can give rise to collective understanding of why we shouldn't play this game.
