This is an example of confirmation bias. It overlooks all the examples in which technology works and makes improvements to people's lives. Things like airline safety and medicine have made big advances.

But I think some of the bullshit is superfluous features that do nto do anything or seem redundant. Why is there a warning if you try to turn the volume up too loud on windows? So annoying. Or McAfee being preinstalled and then annoying popups (bloatware). In that sense, I agree with the author.
