    Somewhere along the line, maybe the early to mid 2000’s they stopped making products “for” the end-user and flipped it around so the end-user (their data) is now the product, and the customers are governments, corporations, and share holders.

      shareholders

      If 0.000…01% shareholders count:

      Guessing a lotta us have a few bucks in index funds… suppose that ain’t cool, gotta find a principled fund.

      The most principled funds must only invest in like three companies cuz every corp has some problem.

      Because those shareholders (billionaires) and corporations drained the consumers of all of their money and now they’re the most profitable demographic to market to.
