In hindsight this is not surprising at all, I would argue that it is the social duty of all developers to assist with such things.
I'm so disappointed with the state of tech and the way the "FOSS movement" as flawed as it can be at times is so weak.
Not surprised though, it was just a matter of time (about a decade) after the capital started really flowing that everything was required to go to shit.
I do not understand all the changes in tech, so much new happens each day. Some changes each day are good. But like you imply, much bad happens daily. I say daily because millions contribute.
But change is the only constant here. And a state of constant flux, historically, is not helpful to the ruling classes. Its not that helpful to the workers either. But the stage is not set for one to win over the other yet.
We have a few decades before nano technology ensures the wealthy will win. It will be a challenge between that, and climate change. Surely we are in the most decisive moments of human evolution, and world history for life. There are so many ways to fail, and only a few to succeed.
