Even criminals tend to have some moral standards. They are not all complete sociopaths. For instance, go to jail for murdering an adult male and you will be accepted and perhaps even respected by other prisoners. Go to jail for murdering a child and you will be despised and quite possibly abused by the other prisoners.

I've met a lot of "techie-trash" who even outwardly portray themselves as sociopathic, as if that made them seem smart and cool. Hell, I've been meeting people like that since the 90's! (They are a very slim minority of the tech populace, but their lack of self-awareness makes them tend to be very visible.)
