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!
