I agree its a very hard line to draw. But I think certain technology is more contagious and dangerous. For instance, a single person with a gun can inflict damage locally with dire consequences on his or her own personal safety in the process. But if someone has a virus (physical or digital), then it caries a kind of contagion that can disproportionately hurt many more people. That's why we can't equate something like deaths due to car accidents to pandemic deaths. A single car accident doesn't increase the risk of all car accidents. It's localized. But a single infection increases the risk of future infections due to contagion. Whether you think any technology falls into the dangerous contagious category or not is up for debate.
