For many years my primary if not sole concern was with govt power and the abuse thereof. The one redeeming aspect of capitalism is you are not forced to use any company's service/product - not even Google. What the bastards did figure out is that we are willing to sacrifice almost everything for convenience, and they use that against us.
And it’s not just Google - Amazon servers, the entire banking/credit system - everything can be depleted if they choose. (Check Parler’s experience for the full-court-press.)
Yes, and where govt grants monopoly power - directly or indirectly. The corporations end up serving their masters, for a corporation is a creation of the State, and in the end, to the State it returns.
