I'll give you two: (1) Genetically modified food, particularly seeds.
(2) Psychological advancement of marketing, preying on the biological weakness of the human mind.
The impact of the first should be obvious, tho most don't realize the stranglehold there is on good quality seed genetics.
The impact of the second is easy to confuse with the invention of the touchscreen mobile phone or even the transistor, but you would never blame a gun for the actions of a mass murderer would you? The zombie generation we're seeing now is the result of careful marketing that happened to use today's technology as their vehicle, but it is that science-based selection of emotional hooks that have fucked us all over.
