The problem is one of form and function. "Web 2.0" software that fits that model is a nearly disjoint subset from "Web 2.0" software that is socially responsible. Effectively, he's an accidental slave trader. But, the radar mindset has trouble seeing that because in the radar mind-set the purported requirements of big-C capital are the primary engineering constraint and the rest follows from that.
I say the above and, while it is entirely defensible and even constructive, the capital-chasing instincts behind the rhetoric seem to make it impossible for y'all to talk about. In the bubble around this stuff, critique with a view of social responsibility - if it leads to negative conclusions about financially promising or successful endevors - seems to be considered at least rude and possibly threatening.
I miss the Enlightenment. That was a nice party while it lasted.
