Some corporations are evil: selling wapons to dictators, lying to your own employees (enron), deliberately making your product more addictive to sell more even if you know it destroys the health of your customers (sigarette companies).

...surveillance as a business model, anticompetitive practices to ensure customers never get better options...

Corporations aren't good or evil.
Corporations are just a group of people. Corporations do evil because some of the people in them are evil (and the rest are ambivalent).
The problem is we, as a society, tend to hand-wave away corporate malfeasance as some sort of unsolvable problem. It’s not - when a company does evil, we need to hold the leaders responsible. Yes, proving those individual actions/decisions is hard work, but it’s work that needs to be done.

> Anything resembling some kind of ideology or politics is done because it is helping the company to get more money.
This is one of the main points of Marx's Capital.
Big businesses have no ideology, even if some people would like to think otherwise. They will do everything they can to get more money. Anything resembling some kind of ideology or politics is done because it is helping the company to get more money.
Corporations aren't good or evil. They do good or evil (whatever someone might deem like so) as a side effect.
