Little miniature robots freak me out a little bit too.

But seriously are people actually afraid there's evil edge to nanotech and virtually every other major technological advance in the past 100 years?. Seems to me people would only care about advances in the light of how it might make their bourgeois lives easier or fun, and care (or not acknowledge) that one of the beneficiary of many or most of these technologies is the military sector.
