I would encourage you to be grateful for the privilege you have in working in tech and pair that with your personal values of making a positive contribution.

There are stacks of social issues locally to you and beyond that benefit from tech improvements.

The technology is progressing anyway, bring your focus to ensuring that tech is deployed for the greatest social benefit and call others to your cause you’ll soon find like minded folk.

Anyone have good examples of social projects that are based around using tech for social good they can share?
