        Agreed. But tech creates a rod for its back by believing it's different. So any scandal is more jarring.

        The main way tech creates a rod for its own back is by succeeding so well.

        If it were not such big source of change and wealth, few would care about it.

        believe tech is more of an enabler to industries such as transport (Uber), retail (amazon), communication (whatsapp)

        Now days tech sector is also a cause of pain. As tech companies expand they exert both good and BAD influence on govt.
