Teams, yes. But the greater companies? By default, you should assume that any modern corporation cannot be trusted to do anything but act in its own perceived short term best interest. Some may not, some may do better, but you should never assume that they will.
- JumpCrisscross 4y ago> you should assume that any modern corporation cannot be trusted to do anything but act in its own perceived short term best interest Trust, but verify. You shouldn't set yourself up to get massively screwed if a corporate pinky swear falls through. But if you act like an asshole in ever interaction, you're going to select for people who find that the norm.
- azemetre 4y agoTrust but verify only applies to people not pseudo legal entities that have at most a few hundred years of legal history that will likely change again in the next 1,000 years. People acting behalf on these entities don’t deserve your unearned trust.
