Hearing from the leaders of the tech world is always revealing, and very often surprising. In our second annual Silicon Valley Insiders Poll, a panel of 101 executives, innovators, and thinkers weigh in on some of the biggest technological, political, and cultural questions of the moment.
So when we ran an unscientific poll of leaders and thinkers in tech, we had to ask: Which technology do you wish you could un-invent? What innovation do you think should go "back in the box" and be banished forever?
The two winning responses were: selfie sticks and nuclear weapons.
But let's go through some runners-up first.

Agreed, especially since an asphalt surface needs to be replaced more often than 20 years. The stretch of I-5 behind my house has been resurfaced twice in the ten years I've lived there.
It's really quite a simple choice: Life, Death, or Los Angeles.
