Blind Technologists can't see how industry influences and shapes our life abd sets a lor of our logic (even if we didn't believe in it- we are forced naturally and by man made deliberate-design).

As much the technology itself, the logic is mostly the will of the industry's business of profit first and foremost.

People into technology (excited by Tech) often forget there are basically people behind it and they are often very uncaring.
(Steve Jobs testimonies and just lots of CEO examples...)

So while we could entertain for a moment profit "needs to exists", after that split-second, you might actually see that without them caring you can see how it becomes self-serving for industry MORE THAN what's possible (let's say nearly-free energy or methods were discovered - they surely wouldn't call it a day to close their business? They might make a half-assed version like a lot of things today)

Ask yourself: How blind am I that Tech isn't also influenced by others / politics in almost the same degree, if not worse?
