How is Apple a technology company when their main business is selling consumer electronics?

After working for a bespoke semiconductor foundry, I can’t help but be annoyed that “technology” == software.
It irks me when I see people say things like "life was so much better before all this technology".

You mean like agriculture? Writing? Stone tools? :-)

What definition of "technology" are you using?
I disagree that iPhones are simply "consumer electronics ".
