If you missed my point: it's one thing to give benefit of the doubt (which they don't deserve) and it's another thing to just make up dream rantings about what companies are supposedly doing with the data which can be easily checked for truth with basic understanding of underlying mechanisms.

That's LITERALLY conspiracy Theory proven to be conspiracy reality
And that guy, Keith Alexander, is now on the board of Amazon
so giving large tech companies like Google, Amazon, FB the benefit of the doubt is insanity
