I agree. Other commenters seem to think the NYT actually does proper tech investigative journalism, which is completely untrue beyond sensationalistic coverage, surface-level coverage of antitrust critiques, an obsession with social media misinformation, and whining about techbros. Their acquisition of Wirecutter has made their coverage even worse, filling it with "tech advice" blogspam. The idea that the NYT holds the powerful to account is risible.
