The protestors complaints are justified. Google has made surveillance easier and privacy a distant wish. The tech elite have by-and-large ignored the poor. Rooftop gardening is a fun leisure activity and not a solution to obesity, global warming, or world hunger.

But however well intentioned, the protestors are hurting their own cause by resorting to ruthless tactics. The problem of rising surveillance, income inequality, and food shortages are not the fault of one man, or one company. We are all complicit. We all thrive off of an exploitative, unsustainable system. Finding scapegoats gets us no where. Be more productive - Propose solutions. Get the attention of people who can make a difference. Lead people in making a difference.

Still, this is a reminder that we've all failed to create a better world with technology.
