Why can't the tech be neat/super cool and primarily be used to run a scam?

I mean bittorrent is neat tech as well but it's still primarily used for piracy. Doing a deep dive into how bittorrent works doesn't suddenly change the fact that 99.9% of torrents out there are violating somebody's intellectual property.

All I'm saying is, there's lots of super neat tech out there that's primarily used for not-so-super-neat stuff.

(sidenote, I actually think piracy is pretty neat, but it was too good an analogy to pass up)
