If true, this is one of the sinister acts of a corporation that I disagree with stridently.
Corporations only worry about their own existence. They don’t give a hoot about good citizenship.
They don’t care about society as a whole.
They don’t care if their actions are slightly or extremely destructive.
They don’t care if they gift away the secrets of the realm.
If the nation they stared up in goes south, even due to the actions of said corporation, they merely move off to another nation.
I support corporations because massive tasks can’t be achieved unless you have them. I still think they should have national loyalty as a price for operating withing a nation.
The last twenty years have shown how bad corporations can be.
They are headed toward destroying our nation, and replacing it with another entity.
