Distrusting big companies in general makes sense. They only care about endless profit growth.

- deadmutex 8y agoDo you trust startups more? E.g. when Uber was a startup, it did stuff like this: https://sanfrancisco.cbslocal.com/2014/11/18/uber-crunches-user-data-to-determine-where-the-most-one-night-stands-come-from/ https://sanfrancisco.cbslocal.com/2014/11/18/uber-crunches-u....
- TeMPOraL 8y agoStartups are even worse - most seem to care only about growth, not even profit, their goal being to hand off the hot potato they built as soon as possible, to whoever gives enough money.
- JohnFen 8y agoIn general? Yes. But it depends on the nature of the startup. VC-backed startups are not more trustworthy at all. However, there's a rather huge difference in the capacity for harm. If Joe's Tiny Company is just as nasty as the likes of Amazon/Facebook/Google/etc., JTC is still preferable simply because they don't have as much power to abuse.
