They aren’t upset about technological advancement, they’re upset at the utter lack of consumer protection.

It’s been bad for a long time:

And nothing has changed that. But go ahead don’t let me stop you from begging to be a beta tester.

Worked out so far right? https://www.wired.com/story/elon-musk-pcrm-neuralink-monkey-deaths/

Im sure Elon will totally not rat fuck you like he has done to every Tesla owner (bad build quality, false advertising for things like full self driving, etc)

It’s wild you are so desperate to defend these out of control capitalists wanting to do literal human experimentation. The corporations don’t give a fuck about you, you’re expendable.
