I've said for a long time... Isn't it quite possible that Amazon, Google, Facebook, Apple, etc. and other like companies, such as DocuSign... were initially seeded by Darpa/Alphabet Agencies... After all... wasn't IBM, AT&T and past behemoth's... infiltrated and subverted, if not initially funded and/or regulated by Gov't entities, and had "Federal" divisions within their companies?

Good day 2nd smartest...

I agree with your general insight. More than agree. We (my wife and i) are in the process of unplugging from this CAFO (Confined Animal Feeding Operation). Hopefully by mid 2023 the cord will be cut. Still I am a bit concerned with how people use the word communism today and its original meaning prior to 1918. A definition by Kenneth Rexroth from his book "COMMUNALISM From Its Origins to the Twentieth Century"

Prior to 1918 the word “communism” did not mean Left Social Democracy of the sort represented by the Russian Bolsheviks, a radical, revolutionary form of State socialism. Quite the contrary, it was used of those who wished in one way or another to abolish the State, who believed that socialism was not a matter of seizing power, but of doing away with power and returning society to an organic community of non-coercive human relations. They believed that this was what society was naturally, and that the State was only a morbid growth on the normal body of oeconomia, the housekeeping of the human family, grouped in voluntary association. Even the word “socialism” itself was originally applied to the free communist communities which were so common in America in the nineteenth century...

I was shocked at how easily my ex-husband could have divorced me without my knowledge.

If he had just forged my signature on the decree, I would not have been notified at all except for the email stating that the judge had signed off and it was official.

If my ex had put a fake email address for me on the paperwork, I would not have even seen that.
