I’m not continuing the debate, but I’d like to answer your question:
I disagree, the design of technology is political (see Invisible Women) and the use of technology is political (see Marx and I guess the current political era in general).
Only in the absolutely simplest case would I agree, i.e. technology is politically neutral in the sense that a car would still exist if all humans were to vanish tomorrow, and wouldn’t in itself be a political agent, but that’s not really an interesting statement.
