  1. Re:The contradiction on Meet the Man Who Will Save the Internet · · Score: 1

    That's like saying: You won't mind being full body searched at the airport, you have nothing to hide, right? You wouldn't mind, to help protect the plane from bad guys? The internet is fine the way it is. Leave it alone!

  2. Re:'Corporations are evil' is a fallacy on Shareholders Pressure Internet Companies on Rights · · Score: 1

    Corporations are entities brought into existence by government, to allow owners to not take responsiblity for the losses of a company (while at the same time, gaining profits through dividends). Where else in this world is a person not responsible for their debts but when they own part of a corporation?!?
    Corporations are evil not because they make money, they're evil because there is no responsibility placed upon the owners. My father is owed several thousand dollars by a large retailer from the 1980's in Pittsburgh. They went bankrupt, and the debts were parceled out to the banks first until there was no money left. The shareholders, the owners of the company, had no responsibility to pay these debts.
    Look at what's happening to pension funds all across the USA, as corporate takeover artists run companies into bankruptcy, just to get them out of their contracts!
