- calibraxis 12y agoPolice serve state interests, and protect their employer's (the state's) policies from the population. Anyway, it's just a propagandistic motto, like "Don't be Evil". We're discussing legal and structural constraints on corporations, that force them to care only about maximizing profit and marketshare. (Otherwise they fail, or get legal action, etc.) After all, corporations are artificial state creations too. With police, they're armed bureaucrats of the state which enforce policy on the population with violence. (And the threat thereof.) In that light, their actions are unsurprising.
