tech is not the problem, corporations are.
More specifically, it's capitalism that is the problem, not tech.
Tech enables capitalism to take the exploitation to new lows.
We don't blame the whip, we blame the slaver
yes, that is the core of the problem. But its also too abstract to target at the moment. Those who understand dont need pointing out that it needs to go and those who dont might be able to at least see the "boils" if they cant see the disease.
but how to get people to understand that it even is a problem? So many seem to be content to constantly go against even their own interests. Its like most have been brainwashed so they attack you if you dare even suggest there is something wrong with all this. Or if they dont they will just be apathetic and throw canned "it is what it is" at you.
Agree. It's not the tech it's how it's used and how business owners drive the product development and timelines.
