Tech Loses a Prophet. Just When It Needs One

  > I use the term devastate because, though no fault of Professor Christensen’s, disruptive innovation took a turn for the worse in tech. Silicon Valley failed to marry disruption with a concept of corporate responsibility, and growth at all costs became its motto. The more measured approach that Professor Christensen taught was ignored. This describes very well why I have come to consider disruptive innovation/technologies to be a negative force. It's too bad, too, because it could have been a positive one.
