This is going to offend a lot of techies, but if you accept that high paying job in exchange for looking the other way as you work for a company that is destroying democracy, then yes, you're one of the baddies. And yes I realize it's not an easy decision. Been there done that.

I think ultimately we, the engineers, the people writing those lines of code, making those tools, whatever, are responsible for what these lines of code and tools produce; however far from us they might feel like. I also agree that isn’t easy and there are a *lot* of grey areas.
