Shannon Farley, TechCrunch; Is ethical tech a farce?
"If profits beat ethics, is ethical tech possible? Simply put, yes. There
is a different genre of tech startup that values impact over profits.
They are tech nonprofits. Rather than building products that satisfy
animalistic behavior, from screen addiction to fear mongering, tech
nonprofits are building technology to fill gaps in basic human needs —
education, human rights, healthcare. Or as an early tech nonprofit Mozilla stated in its manifesto, technology that, “must enrich the lives of human beings.” Tech nonprofits are building tech products that serve customers where markets have failed."
