Blaming a stereotype of insensitive techies isn't just laziness, it covers up for deeper systemic cruelties in technology.

Seriously, FUCK YOU, if every time technology hurts people, you just go after "lol those Silicon Valley bros"
-
And it's not just that, as
@meyerweb says, sometimes failure just happens. Sometimes there's huge forces at work that aren't individuals. -
What does it mean when you reserve all your ire for a stereotypes of entitled millennials, but not for the venture capital complex?
-
Or, oh *god*, the online advertising complex.

Or what about the pressures that consumers themselves put on technology? Sometimes we as consumers are the problem!

I hope 2015 is the year we begin to all feel ownership in technology. Ownership, thoughtfulness, and responsibility.
-
and part of that ownership should be a certain level of entitlement. We should feel entitled to a better Internet!
