A lot of the tech "innovation" is actually VC "innovation" and is meant to dismantle the safety nets of the working class. Literally half of their disruption is "we'll finance you to lose money until you've ruined all competition, and then you can price gouge everyone while your "contractors" don't get a decent salary, a retirement fund or any kind of insurance.
