Has anyone ever been under the illusion orherwise? I’ve never seen anyone who thought corporations cared about them. And people don’t care about corporations either. They care about getting the shit they want at the price they want and will sleep very soundly if some corporation goes out of business.
a lot of people have a hard time to believe that facebook, google, microsoft, etc cannot be trusted, or even that they don’t have good intentions (anymore?)

Unfortunately I’ve seen quite a few people argue that companies are kept honest by the market and as such they’re trustworthy.

Quite a few? Wow! I would say that’s very naive but it would have to have an ounce of logic to even be evaluated on that scale.

Seems you live in a bubble friend.
One of the most popular kids toys are miniature brand name products that the parents buy for them…
people by M&M’s branded leather jackets for $300 and walk around as human billboards willingly…
people cover their cars with bumper stickers and get tattoos with logos showing their preferences between competing local coffee shops…
Goop, celebrity-fronted baby brands, etc are “lifestyle brands” where people purchase an identity and defend it against others…
Sports teams are corporations that people literally have bloody fist fights over…
Target is selling a Halloween costume and kids sized shopping carts and checkout stands and their parents are buying them… For money
What in the sweet sticky god damn FUCK are you talking about “was anyone under that illusion”?
Dude, Donald trump is a fucking corporation that elderly people eating cat food donate their pension checks to…
You seem to be delusional if you see NONE of that.
None of that is people thinking corporations care about them. You’re high. Get some sleep.
