My replies would be the following:
1. Right, I realize this. That's one part of why they're still my friends!
2. I never said my friends are evil because of this. I in fact said quite the opposite.
3. The question is not whether something can be used for "evil", but whether it is. If it is, ideally people shouldn't be contributing to it.
4. I have no idea. I'm also not sure how this comes into play.

If a thing is used for evil, but also for good, where do you draw the line and say the bad is outweighing the good and the thing has to go?

That's secondary to the question I'm asking. The question I'm asking is how to even bring up the topic in the first place. If I can get that far I think I've already done pretty well.
- d_theorist 9y agoMy advice would be to start by ditching the word 'evil'. It's ambiguous, and has religious connotations that probably only serve to confuse rather than clarify. Try describing your issues with these companies in more precise terms.
