None of these technologies are a grift per say, the economic system we use to develop them and the marketing needed to ensure funding under the aforementioned hellscape is a grfit.

Let’s not perpetuate the idea that industry develops most technology. It’s all built off academia, which is funded by taxes. At best industry swoops in the last few steps and scales it up. That’s necessary and even good, but it’s not worth destroying the rest of the world over – particularly when that includes academic research.
