Go through history and tally up the human rights violations done by companies and govts and see who the leader is.

The govt has an army, police, and jails. The govt has legal means to use violence against people and deny them their freedoms. Any company that could do that would be doing it with the blessing of the govt first, which kinda just makes them a govt contractor.

Govt having information is not the same as a company who just wants to pre-approve you for a loan or show you a YouTube ad.
