Now we have conflated network admins and sysadmin. Different things.
the reality is that was largely ISP's not sysadmins that caused that by throttling, shaping and in some cases out right blocking traffic.
Throw in some laziness by devs as well, it is widely inaccurate to lay that out the feet of sysadmins.

Lots of ORM's were written by people that were DBA's because they were tired of devs that did not know how to construct a proper SQL Query, and thought that Select * was the always the correct way to return data.
This idea that devs had to ride in to save the industry from evil DBA attempting to block everything is a complete revision of history

I am not sure how a circle jerk is proof of anything? devs in many cases may have gotten rid of sysadmins, but now a new beast is emerged that is making life hell for both sysadmins and devs alike. The "Cyber Security Analyst" and if the devs thought sysadmins saying no was a problem, you have not seen anything yet. Unlike the sysadmin cyberSecurity will be backed by compliance, insurance companies, and standards organizations. They will have actual teeth, and actual power something the sysadmin never had
