Think a lot of posters are taking the criticism of `Technosolutionism` to literally mean _technology_; not various apps/services which are hailed to solve problem X without any actual evidence/merit of that claim.

I really don't think they bundle vaccines into that department...

Because that's how its expressed. Like other criticism in this now fashionable genre, it accuses technology of being the problem. Of course this is a complete red herring, but it bites, because commenting on the actual source of the problem will make you sound like you're just rehashing Marxist tropes, which everyone has heard already and thus they don't drive engagement.
