It's not tech that is getting user-hostile, it's just bad tech. The big problem IMHO is that some of the essential technology we rely on every day -- our operating systems, communication devices, vehicles -- has been moving rapidly into that category in recent years.

Now it's becoming unavoidable, and that's a serious concern.
