I cant tell you how much it sucks to be someone with a conscience in tech today. I have to dodge using world-ending technologies while pretending I'm ok with them. I have to carefully navigate which projects I get assigned so I dont end up being complicit in something terrible. I've wanted out so many times, but I'm the primary income source for my family and I dont have any other marketable skills. I feel so trapped.
