I think Charles Gave and George Friedman have both pointed out that the technology sector is loath to address their externalities. The old saw about the car not starting and the mechanic saying "have you tried turning it off, getting out, getting back in and starting it up again" is funny but also desperately insulting: as a society we put up with the bullshit the tech industry pulls on the reg not because it's appropriate or expected but because the tech industry insists we have to.

I think people in the tech industry have no problem insisting that I need Authy on my phone like a goddamn Enigma Machine if I want to (checks phone) post on the company Instagram page while also shrugging their hands at the notion that the entire fucking 2FA apparatus is beholden to a company whose server password is "companyname123". It's like how high and mighty Sony got about people ripping off their CDs while also insisting that putting malware on their CDs was exactly what a multinational company was within their rights to do. And then kept their passwords in plaintext. And still subscribe to a credit card verification server that doesn't acknowledge the existence of credit unions.
