I am repeating this comment all over the place but - in those same government contracts, they also agreed to share this data with the government. See page 5 of the complaint: https://www.dol.gov/sites/default/files/newsroom/newsrelease...

>It doesn't matter
It does matter. He's arguing that actual people should have a greater right to privacy than do corporations.
Granted, this is not a legal argument, but an ethical one.
Moreover, he might actually have some legal standing (INAL, etc) since there are laws that mandate corporate transparency whereas there are no direct equivalents for private persons.
It doesn't matter. That wasn't the argument stated; What was proposed was "Why does it matter if you have nothing to hide."
> They do not (and should not) have the same rights.
Corporations are protected from illegal search and seizures just like people.
> Does anyone read the article anymore?
I wasn't responding to the article. I was responding to the previous poster.
