When did I say that...
...the Big Corporation is good?

As far as I'm concerned the trust I put in any entity, government or corporate, is inversely proportional to the damage that entity can inflict. Governments can do the most damage so I trust them least. Big corporations can cause big damage and I'm not inclined without demonstration that they can be trusted to trust them either. (That's one of the reasons I'm so fervently anti-Microsoft--the company can cause a lot of damage and has demonstrated a willingness to do so.)
