If you cannot accept them doing good and reward them for the good there is no incentive to act good. Acting badly, covertly mustn't be the best way to do things.

    But they are profit motivated companies. If they get hatred for doing good it is unprofitable to act good. Of course they aren't babies, but creating an environment in which dystopian companies farr best is... Unwise.
