How are 3-5 'anti-tech'?

3. Tech shouldn't imply or require privacy compromises.

4. Piracy tools often drive innovation and technological progress. (Not to mention would we have subscription music services or even Netflix's non-DVD-by-mail business without the market pressure from piracy? Would they cost more?)

5. How does a position or preference on a business model imply pro- or anti-tech?

And even #2 doesn't necessarily imply an anti-tech stance. I don't think it's anti-tech to resist putting computers in toasters, for example. The overuse of tech can be a step backwards and hurt overall technological progress, imho.

Not sure what #1 means.
