I guess I was just lucky that my entire adult working life basically spanned the democratization of personal computers and digital communications from the 80s up to a few years ago. I never knowingly shipped anything that intentionally made things harder, less powerful or less efficient. On the contrary, everything I was involved with was substantially faster, better and more powerful than existing alternatives. And usually cheaper too. I guess people starting careers in high tech today will either have to make some hard ethical choices or get good at rationalizing doing bad things.
