This kind of implies you do not find greed and a lack of scruples to be evil.

No, it does not. I just don't find it to be "next level" of evil.

Getting people put on terror watch lists is not introductory level evil. We are talking about destroying lives, not ruining someone's day.

So we have Facebook destroying lives on a massive scale by knowingly wasting people away glued to the screen. They also knowingly exploit base emotions of literally billions of people to antagonise them just to keep them "engaged" and sell some ad space.
I call this "next level" evil.
Regular evil is, where I live, a small developer (housing) went bankrupt and wasted life savings of hundreds of people. They did a lot of absolutely mind boggling stupid stuff and they knew they are running out of cash and still accepted payments from more people. Given history of these cases here, they are unlikely to ever spend even a day in jail and the most it ever gets is couple of mentions in local news.

I feel like I am taking crazy pills having this conversation. Regular evil is letting the air out of someone's tires or lying to your spouse, not wasting away the life savings of hundreds of people.

If you want a proper "Facebook is evil" point, there's always the Rohingya genocide[1] -- "Facebook has admitted that it played a role in inciting violence during the genocidal campaign against the Rohingya Muslim minority in Myanmar"

Whoa what? Wasting away life savings of hundreds of people is way worse than regular evil. Why is that on a different level than Facebook or any major corp who are worse because of more power and scope, but still??
