Abuse of 1099 independent contractors is pretty much endemic to every large industry and profession in the US, though. The tech sector isn't going to get called out on it before sales, etc. It's just "the way it is", because the IC regs are almost entirely in the employer's favor financially. And since the capitalists have the money, the rest of us are unable to influence the government with the same net effect.
