From the philosophical point of view you have an entity, not a tool.

When you just start building a system, you have it under your control. For the system to survive, it must have the ability to reproduce, and you inevitably expand the system to the point of self-production, because of the benefits it gives to you. You move from human-made, scalable small technology you can build yourself to technology you cannot build yourself, cannot build without complex factories and techniques impossible to replicate alone with human hands.

After it reaches that point, it becomes a separate entity. You don't control it anymore because it reproduces, because it is global, large and complex. It becomes fragmented between so many people it is impossible to stop everyone participating in such a system and impossible to control it.

Now you have an autonomous system, and over-system consisting of minds of all people participating in it. You become (the banal phrasing) a cog in the machine, not someone who controls the machine. And machine exists solely to create more machines, to reproduce, to sustain itself.

>Wherever a technical factor exists, it results, almost inevitably, in mechanization: technique transforms everything it touches into a machine.

This is not a tool someone holds and controls when it is going to bash. There is no villain you just have to defeat to solve every problem on Earth. Your life depends on lives and actions of thousands of people you never ever seen in your life, you cannot just blame one cog in being an idiot because every single cog depends on each other.
