This is the first time I have heard of a "tech crisis" - and I think it's appropriate. I think we, as industry leaders, need to accept and address our faults and shadows. The first step to progress is to admit that you need help.

    Hi, I'm an end user who refuses to pay for software. Why should I when all the tools I need are online for free?

      Hi, I'm a broke American who would only eat organic, not buy cheap electronics from China, volunteer 6 hours a week, help out the homeless every Saturday, never use Uber, and take part in every major political protest.... just as soon as my government decides an economy functions better when the people who make it up aren't living on scraps. Ethical consumption under late-stage capitalism is a myth. It can't happen. And before you tell me something about lifestyle changes, I pay well over $100 a month for various software and distribute around $50 to the local homeless a month. But that isn't the norm and most people can't justify it. Our tech salaries blind us from how the rest of the world lives. I mean... I contribute to and release my own free software, so at least I'm putting my money where my mouth is? Making things free is a form of economic resistance.
