    i actually agree with the op, however not so much the cited examples, or putting the blame on technology itself but rather the seller of that technology.

    i think the issue is when a company has gotten so big and they focus on profits rather than their customers they may not pay that extra attention to the user experience.

    in the end you have:

    a social platform that works but cumbersome and counter-intuitive privacy settings

    weak css cross browser compatibility (and the multiple required html 5 video encodings for html5 video)

    losing your session at the end of a tediously long online transaction

    scratch disks are full

    *amazing* OS file indexing service that slows your computer to a screeching halt

    etc, etc
