Depends on company size. I am in a <100 employee company that is not a software organization. I lead the IT group (12 including myself). I report to the COO. He participates in interviews for candidates who would be in my group -- even those that report to one of my supervisors.

Even in larger groups, I wouldn't be surprised if the CTO participated deeper than you might at first assume.

GoodReads (https://www.goodreads.com/) might not be perfect; but I think it at least comes close to a book log and recommendation system.
I'd actually say it has more to do with more penetration of wifi access. I hardly use any mobile data anymore. I am almost ALWAYS connected to wifi.

Whatever the cause; it is unacceptable.
