It's not really targeted at tech, insomuch as at Democrats.
Everyone assumed it was a traditional accounting hack. But given the timing and the reinitialization, it's clearly political, not economic.
The code is a strategic time-bomb designed to cause a high-profile economic downturn during a presidential election cycle, specifically when the following president is a Democrat and Republicans have a house majority.
It was used to harm Biden's economy, and it will happen again in 2030 if the next president is a Democrat. While deferred, it will be spun as a major Trump "economic achievement" for the midterms, because companies will be able to afford to hire again.
The tech industry is merely high-profile fodder for extreme politics. It really is that petty.
