Of course, technology doesn't kill people. I never said it did. Right now I'm pointing fingers at people for what they're doing, not the underlying technology.

A wise man once said, "Drain the swamp." It's my civic duty to point out swampiness unabashedly and impartially.

Since CAs behavior, and by extension CAs customers, is inexcusable, swampy human behavior, I will stand against it. In the same way the DNCs actions against Bernie Sanders was inexcusable, the way the DNCs actions against Bernie Sanders was inexcusable, union corruption is inexcusable, corporate negligence is inexcusable, product misrepresentation is inexcusable, bullshit ICOs are inexcusable, authoritarian communism is inexcusable, the same way that history has been full of lying and deceitful politicians, priests, businessmen, lawyers, activists, messiahs I will stand against it.

Yes. "Everyone does it and always has" is a very weak excuse.
