mine Mozilla,discord and snapchat so for discord and snapchat it is to improve their privacy and for Mozilla it is to provide competitive experience compared to chrome on ff
Twitter, Tesla, and Space X because there’s absolutely no chance I could do worse.
Meta, Twitter, and Microsoft
I’d Eddie Lampert all 3, donate the money to charity, and go back to my regularly scheduled day job.
news corp (ch…ch…ch…chaaanges a comin’), microsoft or google (i mean, alphabet), and whatever the largest health care network is (like banner, or united, or whatever. just the biggest one).
Amazon, Apple and SpaceX. The first two for staggering short-term monies before they figure out I don’t know anything, and kick me out, SpaceX because I think rockets are cool! Maybe I’d kill off Starlink since that’s pissing off astronomers and astronomers are also cool.
None, because their boards would sue my pants off for what I’d do with them.
A better question would be what I’d do with controlling ownership of three companies.
If I was going for money and influence across different areas, maybe Google, Amazon, and Berkshire Hathaway.
BlackRock is very influential
Honestly some kind of waste management or water treatment business. Stable, reliable industry that provides an important service and keeps society running.
Meta, google and Apple. Opensource what needs to be and optionally connect the world together while respecting the privacy of those who want it.
Tesla, X and SpaceX. And then I’d shoot myself.
Should rather give ownership to the employees instead 🙂
Dan’s Hardware, Spiffy Carwash, and The Salty Dog Wash
Truly just a hard workin bloke
google, bytedance, and amazon
mainly to open source their software and get rid of privacy invasive & anti-consumer stuff
i suppose you could turn tiktok into a long form platforms
Meta, Amazon, TikTok and shut them all down immediately
mabye sell instagram to calyx institute
Nestle: Pull them immidiately out of all palm oil sourcing and switch to alternative sources. Vow to replenish all lost palm trees affected by palm oil deforestation. Stop all uneithical business practices in 3rd world countries and replace them with practices that prop up those communities including educating the next generations so they aren’t only dependant on the money coming from Nestle. Revisit water sourcing for bottling plants to make sure they aren’t affecting locals or local aquifers. Basically just stop the company from making money hand over fist on the backs of other people’s suffering in every way possible.
Microsoft: Stop all plans of advertising on a paid OS. Stop whatever KPIs are forcing pop ups down everyone’s throats and redesigns every 3 days. In the spirit of WSL2, Open Source. Wherever possible within security limitations open source software. Set the standard. Spend the time to also integrate so much of what the competition has done, especially local OS wise. Focus on user experience rather than KPIs and squeezing more money from users.
Some unheard of Big Oil Consortium or trust or something, whoever BP and Exxon Mobil and all them go to and are directed by: Oil well cleanups. Stop fracking. Transition in to clean/alternative energy. Ocean clean up and rehabilitation. Basically stop being worse than the bad guys from James Bond movies.
Oh man, you guys are thinking way too big. Become the CEO of 3 small companies! Abscond with your 3 100k paychecks while working 10 hours a month. You’ll never make the news. Enjoy the easy life.
