- bryanrasmussen 11y agoYou know Alphabet has binder full of corporations so they can always send another one over to drive the car if the police take the current driver into custody.
- cbd1984 11y ago> And corporations are people Can we have at least one discussion forum where the notion of corporate personhood isn't abused into idiocy like this? Maybe here on a discussion board run by Y Combinator, a company with the mission of helping to create new corporations?
- afarrell 11y agoI agree that in general, this quote gets brought into the discussion rather blindly. But in this specific case, I assert (without an actual legal background) that the word "person" in this law would refer to Google and that this loophole wouldn't work.
