We're is this technology related? It's completely political - something I don't want to see, but now also technology cannot be followed anymore, as most things here are political news with a tech keyword in the headline sadly :/

But isn't broadband access one of the main requirements for using technology? I understand not wanting to interact with politics, but nothing in our life is truly separated from it.

Politics is everything

If your kid is the better player but the coach picks his kid to be on the team then that’s politics

If company puts a paid OS on their IBM machines because it’s made by the son of someone on their board instead of the superior free option then that’s politics
