RE: Don’t Be Evil, Google Hates the Competition
This will definitely red pill a lot of people on the dangers these companies pose, and I hope will lead to an extension of First Amendment protections to the users of these services and to situations not involving the government. At the time of the founding, government was the only threat big enough to need explicit restraining in the Constitution. Now corporations, whether in cooperation with government or in opposition to it, are a greater danger than government itself. At least the government must follow due process before ruining your life. On the Internet, a mob of people you don't know can have you fired for a joke they didn't like in a matter of hours, with no evidence, no trial, and no appeal.
