From your link

>Off-Topic: Most stories about politics, or crime, or sports, unless they're evidence of some interesting new phenomenon.

So while maybe it isn’t “unless they involve technology” is is still claimed in your guidelines that they are mostly banned.

If you familiarize yourself with the past explanations that I just linked to, you'll see that this is explained in detail. If, after that, you have a question that isn't answered there, I'd be happy to give it a try.

Pretty much everything involves technology today. What was that famous quote? "Software will eat the world" or something like this?
