Sure, with Big Tech losing sight of customer needs and going a lot more fascist in recent years I hate working for an American tech company and it's weird to be a tech enthusiast. Money is great though and I can sleep well at night knowing my product barely has any customers to ruin their lives of.

Still: I'd love to have a positive impact on the world with my skills, but the job market is shit and my immediate environment doesn't care as much despite noticing the hostility towards users.
