Space is really spread out, and we will forever lack the means to get around it fast. Space also happens to be highly inhospitable to human life. For these reasons, I submit that no human will ever go farther than Mars.

    What if there was a technology that publishes the face of any murderer? (including soldiers) and bans them from my social network

    Or a technology that allows a refugee to trade in everything they own and set up elsewhere without their livelihood being stolen?
