HN has helped me realize the staggering extent of the ethics problem facing software as an industry, and realize that most people are not inclined to do anything about it.

This post is not sarcastic either.



Alternatively, it helps one see to what extent the tech-industry is a culture battleground, given the ongoing clashes of different moral systems.


I'm not certain why you're getting downvoted, other than a difference of opinion which is a lame reason IMO.


agreed. I've seen a lot of sociopath style thinking here. it is good to be aware that this is so common but it does make me sad.


Don't be sad. Better you know what you're up against, than not know.
