Tech is about anything people use it for. Why not focus on the company that did this than an entire industry of tech

It is very convenient for bad actors to insist on a game of whac-a-mole rather than a reckoning with the larger problem that seems to govern the behavior of a large number of significant companies.
Because that implies a large number of companies are conspiring together without evidence
The idea of a systemic issue is that an underlying factor is encouraging/inducing bad behavior, not that everyone conspires to perform the bad behavior together (although it certainly doesn't discourage them if everyone else is doing it too).
