Isn't an EMP attack or the Chastisement all it takes for the IT profession to be obsolete?

If the digital infrastructure collapses the least of everyone's concerns will be what job they have.  If IT goes the way of the dodo bird it's because something really bad happened, and at that point the only skills that matter are trade/survival skills anyways.

Literally EVERY OTHER PROFESSION might be faced with having to deal with a porn company: plumbers, cooks, bakers, copy machine repair, marketing, sales, you name it.
Any IT infrastructure behind the internet materially contributes to pornography. Material complicity isn't always a sin, though.

My first reaction to this thread was that no profession is "safe".  If you are working "in the world" a Catholic is never "safe".  There may be some professions that shield you better than others, but don't fool yourselves into thinking any are 100% safe.

Of course.  "Satan prowls like a lion" is always true.  Saying that IT is safe actually means that it is relatively safe, not that it is safe in an absolute sense.  One must rely on prayer and the Sacraments, not on one's choice of profession, to be preserved from evil.  Nevertheless we have a responsibility to avoid near occasions of sin, so it is good to know about this aspect of various careers.
