I think this is true, but we seem to be slow to learn from past mistakes.  New technologies emerge all the time and we have plenty of experience with this causing unintended side effects, yet we have a pretty bad track record of remembering this the next time some new technology emerges.  Its typically not until the new technology has been out there for a while that the problems become evident and solutions are devised.
