In a true Thanksgiving cliche, I would like to enumerate what I'm thankful for in technology.

I know, it sure doesn't feel like there are many things to feel good about. Tech tools have allowed misinformation, bullying and social division to spread like a virus. They have empowered tyrants and monsters, and created an underclass of impossible jobs. Some days I want to do a Road Runner cartoon dynamite to the internet and start fresh.
