Accepting the premise of the article, one can only respond...
And YOU did it.
YOU yearned to work for these companies and were prepared to sell your gonads and even your soul to do so for the ostensible prestige, the salary, the tech, the "interesting problems", the 30 pieces of silver, helping the oligarchic overlords establish this technocratic world order.
YOU!
You claim to care about the common good, but that is mere posturing, mere pretense, mere cover for your real motives. You might even rationalize your behavior in various transparent ways. At least have the decency to be honest. Double down and say "I don't care. I'm doing it anyway."
Alas, the cunning of reason, providence, will always press even evil acts into its service. The evil man shall lose by defiling himself through his deeds, but these evil deeds shall be used to bring about a greater good despite his efforts. Thus the use of these technologies by those whom the oligarchic class despises and the shattering of the false narrative they were previously able to and hoping to continue to control.
