I use the 10 million as a threshold. Below 10 million people using it, it’s civic tech. Above 10 million, we can call it civil engineering, because like bridges and roads, the bridges and roads that we build has maybe 10 million active users using that infrastructure. If you have the user base that is above half of all the adult citizenship, then you can call yourself a civil engineer.
