> The tech industry is absolutely the most benevolent force for good these last few decades I'm not sure I agree with that. You might be right, but it is definitely souring as companies get better at turning out daily lives into a consumerist panopticon. It feels like every single piece of tech I might want to buy and bring into my house nowadays wants to spy on me. Or rather is spying on me. A basic tv that I only ever use to play games on, wants to show me advertising. It wants to spy on the games I play and the shows I stream and show me ads. How sick is that? That's certainly not a benevolent good, by any measure. Maybe we're at a crossroads where we could choose to be better, or choose to make more money. I think we passed the crossroad a while back and we're at least partway down the ugly path of tech. Maybe it's not too late to turn back.
