> live in fear of private companies It's not the _concept_ of private companies. It's specific things that those specific companies do. e.g. https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2018-08-30/google-an... Meaningful regulation would mean e.g. air-gapped infrastructure so they can't make inadvertent privacy mistakes. And guaranteed service levels, and a service of last resort. Google have based built a business model without accountability and transparency. Which is fine, as long as we're not forced to use them by the state. |

It's not just the specific things that those companies do, it's the (lack of) structure of rights and entitlements that the users have.
