Technology

I see what's happening here as part of that societial failing that you speak of and I don't see the issue with the technology itself but how we handle it. There's no single reason for why things are this bad but it's a death by 749268 cuts thing. By not caring about consequences in each area, and blaming other areas of life we end up in a situation where things collectively suck purely because of our wrong priorities. There's absolutely no reason to push out immature tech so heavily. It's all done for profit while impacting the environment and economy very negatively. It's not done for good of us people where something like this is an unfortunate rare accident that everyone looks into preventing in the future in a sane reasonable way. No, it's the cost of doing business and operating our society. Safety net is not made using one single string but a whole bunch of them working together to achieve something bigger and good.
