Maybe Big Tech isn’t universally hated.

A smarmy, out of touch, "all's right with the world, invisible hand of the market, shut up and buy" article, like most business writing. Consumers—and voters—are not an undifferentiated rabble any more than all "tech" is the same thing, or even every denizen of Silly Valley is an identical coding dudebro. Google and Assbook are in the business of destroying privacy, and are already being used to identify and harass members of unpopular minorities. See Arlie's comment on Amazon. More than that teh article isn't worth taking the time to write.
