Anyone in tech confirm?
Yes and no. Just like John Wick still had his hitman tools hidden in his house, tech workers who say they want to buy a farm and be a luddite will not be able to resist having a hidden server closet in their farmhouse.

(Tech worker here, hoping to move to the countryside next year.)

Absolutely. I probably wouldn’t be doing any farming, except grow some vegetables for my own needs. But I would definitely build my own awesome local infrastructure with a server room and network cables in the walls and all that good stuff. When I retire and don’t have to spend 8-10 hours a day in front of a computer at work, it’ll probably be enjoyable and satisfying again to work on and maintain my own computers and stuff. Currently I rarely have the motivation or energy to do that.

And if the house is large enough I’d also make certain areas/rooms completely tech free. Like maybe a small library with only books and comfy chairs, and no wifi signal.
