>Meta seems like one of the few large tech companies where if the whole company vanished, the world would be purely a better place.

In the 'developed' world I'd extend that concept to many other other organizations. Around 90% of the work they do is useless or harmful: banks, govt, fast food chains etc.

Banks and government as your first two examples of useless institutions is definitely interesting

Billions of people willingly use banks, fast food chains etc. all the time.

Mmm you're making me want to read Bullshit Jobs again.

banks protect your money so you don't have to keep it under your mattress and get easily stolen. governments build roads and give you clean water. what are you on about? you know Walden was a total lie right?
