"With some gentle nudging from the tech industry’s leaders, I’ve fallen into the trap of believing that tech companies are our friends, and that they’re here to help us live better lives. But that meeting with Trump reminds me, and should remind us all, that tech companies are no different from the hated oil or pharmaceutical giants we so readily distrust: duty-bound to pursue profit above all else." Really??? I went into computers since I enjoyed doing it, was good at it, and was able to make money doing it!!! I guess i missed something.
