Tech’s broken promises: Streaming is now just as expensive and confusing as cable. Ubers cost as much as taxis. And the cloud is no longer cheap::Some tech is getting pricier and looking a lot like the older services it was supposed to beat. From video streaming to ride-hailing and cloud computing.

    “Tech” doesn’t exist. Entire concept is a lie propagated by companies trying to appear like something different.
    Not a tech company - a taxi company, a short term rental company, a video distribution company …

    Look at what they sell, not what tools they use to do it.
