Why must we continually revisit the pragma for why to treat people as innocent until proven guilty?? Yes, it takes more effort and, yes, there is more apparent/immediate risk, but the rationale is sound, given dynamics of any system needing generalized governance.
It doesn't matter that it's lawful for these corporations to circumvent and entirely go against the patriotic creed of the country where they're founded and operate - the matter is still relevant - the principle exists for very good reason, and is applicable to more than just government. What happened to "doing the right thing" regardless of shortsighted, incomplete rationale being applied and (unfathomably) acceptable to people whose very livelihood hinges on this ongoing presumption of innocence?
