LOL. Yeah. I don't generally think of philanthropy (or any other ethical behavior, really) when I think of any of the big three.

Who do you consider the big three now? It's changed and changes so fast now.

Google, Facebook, and Twitter. Google and Facebook not so much because of users or interaction but because of the million other ways they shape the web.

I think for me it's Amazon (AWS), Google and Facebook right now. Subject to change any moment. I'm also extremely disappointed at what's happened to Elon Musk. I think he consumed all the weed in Reno Nevada (and there's a lot of it there). After that loss of top chair? Weirder.

I've never been a fan of Musk, but most tech leaders are "eccentric". IIRC the guy from Boreland (the IDE company, remember them?) fashioned himself a rock star and sank a bunch of money into a CD that he foisted on his employees at a company party.

True dat. How about John Mcafee if you want a nutter with extra butter!

He is no doubt a genius with very interesting politics but his arrogance nearly got him very dead. He was not very wise to mess with crazy violent countries. I don't want to live on a compound with armed guards. I already kind of do. Little Waco down here.

No compounds in my neighborhood, but I abandoned Nextdoor because I really don't want to hang out with some of my neighbors, even virtually. I haven't given up my guns though. :D

Me either. Not mine, nor my husband's service weapon and certain things he brought back from Vietnam. Before he succumbed to his long slow growing Agent Orange related tumors and became paralyzed he was teaching me knife and swordsmanship. Katana. Sheathed for him. Me, just wood.

Hopefully we'll avoid the zombie apocalypse and you won't need those skills...but given the administration's response so far, my expectations are not very high.
