   > Look, I'm no luddite…

   First of all, why do tech writers feel they need to be apologetic when criticizing bad technology decisions by Big Tech?

   I don't see similar hedging when the piece is about the tech underdogs – say, small FLOSS projects. Being a vicious critic is then somehow okay?

   Secondly, just embrace your inner Luddites. Luddites were not against all technology per se, they were against how technology was being used to abuse people:

   Sounds damn valid to me!
