You're sort of right that it's not the technology, but how you use it, but unethically introduced technology has, again, dealt/amplified the damage itself. There's no getting around that. Whether the Chicken or Egg came first doesn't matter quite as much as dealing with what's happened.
But really, "Technology" to me isn't just iPads. It's all of the materials science that went into developing chemicals for the public works to turn people into trannies with tapwater. The environment isn't doing the damage, it's the shit we created and put into the environment that's making all of these retards, whether by chemical, or information.
This world is fucking poisoned now, and I don't see that ever getting better.
