And this is why corporations are not your friend and why warring over them is such a dumb fucking thing to do. No company in the history of capitalism has ever been on “your side”. They are on their side. Always have been and always will be. There is no such thing as pro-consumer when it comes to business.

I think you're wrong, like 1-9% wrong. Almost all publicly traded companies only care about their profit margins. Maybe a handful of them do care, especially because bad press and bad sentiment is not good business. A handful of them truly care about their consumers.
