With the combination of corporate interest and a lack of accountable oversight, it can be plainly assumed that all of FAANG is an equally dangerous domestic security risk.

- throw10920 4y agoThis is a low-value comment that doesn't add any value to the conversation. GP explicitly asked "Please elaborate on what other "version of capitalism" is necessary." which this comment does not attempt to answer, the language used here is unnecessarily abrasive, and the "assumption" this comment claims was made by GP doesn't actually exist.
