I think it is more likely that Belichick is just a Luddite, or to be more charitable, that the tech just isn't very good. In the ESPN article[1], he comments that nothing in the communication stack works reliably, whether it is the tablets, or the in-helmet comm systems, or whatever. People have tried to spin these tech failures in New England as something nefarious along the lines of what Auerbach used to do with the visiting locker room at the old Garden, but these outages hit the Pats often enough that I'm not convinced Belichick is Sauron, Spygate be damned.
