They days of not assuming malice are long past. We have many documented cases of malice from corporations and world governments.

We must assume malice and push back on the invasion of our rights.

The fact that some corporations and governments are guilty doesn't mean they all are. And the fact that they're guilty of some things doesn't mean we should assume they're guilty of others. It's no different than with people; corporations and governments are made of people, after all.

Besides, the constant negativity is just exhausting for all involved. I'm glad intellectual curiosity won out on this thread, at least for now.

That's true, but as soon as you allow something, you're probably allowing it for all time for all future governments.
