    This is one of the most infuriating misconceptions, and it can be corrected with some simple research. Yet people continue to parrot this basic falsehood because “corpo bad”.

      This is one of those things that people repeat without checking because it agrees with their worldview. I have to admit that the first time I heard it I didn’t check it myself, although I didn’t repeat it to anyone else before I saw it debunked elsewhere and confirmed they were correct. Sometimes we need to remind ourselves to be better.
