And that's why its important to prefer internet services hosted in particular companies. The English legacy of law has been very poor at keeping society safe from corporations because these laws were established when the British Empire was a vast trade corporation with an inbred person as CEO by way of the pope said Jesus wanted that family to be in charge.

What's crazy making is a lot of the places the British destabilized the indigenous people had very advanced methods of ensuring society benefited everyone. Not all of them of course, but enough of them that its hard to see the English legacy of law practice as anything other than fundamentally broken and not worth the amount of spread it was forced to have at gunpoint. Like when I hear about how Iroquois nation justice worked I can't help but feel something truly special was lost by way of colonists wanted to profit off beaver pelts
