We're science fiction writers. Of course we write stories about the consequences of technological innovations, and no one ever comprehends the story is about the consequences and not the technology
Soliciting your opinion:
Just re-read the Sprawl Trilogy. I'll absolutely let that Count Zero and Mona Lisa Overdrive were books about tech and consequences, but was Neuromancer not more about the setting? It's very much about human beings doing human being shit with better tools.
I don't think Wintermute is on Bluesky.
Seriously though, the idea that Sci-Fi is strictly about the consequences of tech is valid, but also a really old-school Clarkeian/Asmovian concept. Can you have a more arty, emotional take and still be Sci-Fi?
