Many of the problems are self inflicted or don’t deserve solving in the first place. In fact solving Facebook’s ad targeting “problem” is actively working against The Good.
Unfortunately, my career has been solving such things; and once I realized that, there was no going back and no job satisfaction.
I also take offense at the belief of “being the only one who can solve the problem”. This is an arrogant self serving justification to blind oneself of the harm the solutions cause.
