It's the techbros who don't understand it, obviously. You agreed to install one thing, they took it as permission to install another thing. Conversely, they also offer to support you, then they release the same product under another name and tell you to go fuck yourself. That shit is fucked both coming and going and you're here to defend it.

You don't know whether there's anything to investigate. The purpose of not-investigating is to keep it that way. Wilful ignorance.

That said, the government does "know" plenty of things, which they refuse to act upon. Some of it's a matter of prioritization. Fighting white-collar crime is what the FBI deprioritized last year. They don't have the capacity to investigate it. The need is very much growing, and these government programs are no less in need of policing than private contracts.

So we're back to blaming voters for everything. As if we really had a say in how things were going to run.

We do, but we don't get it until we swap the thoughts and prayers for torches and pitchforks. As long as we spend our time fighting over scraps while the billionaires feast, we will deserve the nothing we get.

A company has no inherent duty, a company's values and responsibilities are only what its owners say they are.

Kinda. A company has an inherent duty to do what the owners say to the shareholders they are doing, in its charter. That charter says something about serving the interests of shareholders, or investment does not occur. Once that's in the charter, they are bound to obey it.

So while a corporation does not legally automatically have first duty to the shareholders, in practice, yes it does.

It also requires unwinding tax loopholes and extensive corruption of public officials.

Notably we have to start prosecuting wage theft. How are we going to have more people get into the middle class if their bosses keep stealing from them? I should have another $15k in the bank right now, as I was paid less than the legal minimum wage to the point where the amount makes it grand theft in this state, but no DA prosecutes such cases unless they think there's a political win in it for them. I was able to get a settlement for half of it through the labor board, but any more would have required me to get a lawyer and struggle and I might have wound up with nothing.
