There are a lot of things wrong with tech firms, but I don't think abusing workers by stealing their labor is one of them. Those jobs are appealing to people precisely because they pay so much.
This is a good place to point out that capitalism has created a higher standard of living for more people than any other idea in the history of the world, while socialist and communist experiments repeatedly end in bankruptcy and starvation.
The classic examples of the USSR, Cuba, and Venezuela still apply but now we're seeing a new failed socialist state -- the EU. As Ayn Rand so eloquently pointed out, the only way to raise up mankind is through liberty and paying people for their work. State control is antithetical to economic or social progress.
