I was so tempted to try their service, but it was always in the back of my mind, inside the part of my brain that was conscious during marketing 101 class in college: “What’s the long term business model here? What happens after they have everyone’s genetic identity?” Then it dawned on me like ooooohhhhh that’s the plan… no thanks.
The automotive manufacturers General Motors and Chrysler were partially nationalized in the wake of the 2008 Financial Crisis as were several banks… these were less a full government takeover and more of a government guided restructuring, but the government owned large stakes in these companies. Before that, the only full nationalization of anything substantial was the bankruptcy of the Penn Central Railroad and subsequent establishment of Consolidated Rail (branded as ConRail) the US’s only national freight rail company.
Conrail was later privatized into what is now the private companies CSX and Norfolk Southern. The collapse of Penn Central was the largest bankruptcy in history until Enron in the 1990’s. Amtrak, our national passenger rail corporation, is also a nationalized entity created around the same time as ConRail, for similar reasons, and is still nationalized (although the Trump admin wants to privatize it).

Technology@lemmy.world•Things at Tesla are worse than they appearEnglish
7·1 year agoI think it’ll be more of an Enron slash Theranos docudrama… questionable accounting and overvaluation mixed with a superstar CEO stuck in a faking-it-till-you-make-it corporate death loop with investors drunk on hype.
They’re kinda like the S-Pen… is it cool? Sure! Do I find myself using it? No, not really.

politics @lemmy.world•Democrats finally sue Trump for trying to control elections
3·1 year agoWell, Senators Manchin and Sinema made sure nothing got done through then… which, when you realize Biden was in charge of the DNC during his administration… it’s a whole “they didn’t whip their legislators well enough” situation. Democrats are nearly world renowned for failing at that.
