And it’s entirely the tech companies making their own bed and then laying in it. In the few jurisdictions where the engineering regulatory colleges won out in protecting their title, there’s a slough of highly qualified Professional Software Engineers who’ve graduated from accredited programs alongside the people who grad from more theory-based compsci programs

They were effective anti-communists. Same reason after the War the US cuddled up with the essentially fascist regimes of Salazar and Franco.
