It's all related. High tech has a lot of negative impacts which are rarely if ever evaluated and more importantly compensated. The reason is they bring in money.

The entire supply chain and lifecycle of a product should be evaluated to understand if it is a net positive or a net negative. Not only the finished product: "wow eye tracking how cool let's deploy everywhere regardless of how the materials for that tech are mined and how the device will be recycled once obsolete".

To be clear, in your mind when someone talks about wanting to fund certain types of software, it is someone's duty to talk about lithium batteries using lots of water?
It seems you want to keep asking the same questions over and over phrased differently and in a way that tries to discredit me or make me sound dumb, so forgive me but this discussion has now reached its end.
I think I'm just summing up what you said.
