I just don’t think that argument is viable. They provide ongoing highly valued services people choose to pay for. Advertising for Google and Facebook, retail and hosting services for Amazon, physical products and online services for Apple, etc. They employ hundreds of thousands of people, are constantly updating and extending their products and services. That’s all serious work done by actual people.
I’m not justifying everything they do, or all their business practices, but if these companies didn’t provide those services someone else would. There’s a genuine need.
