dufferz6766yNone of them in my eyes are as large of a conglomerate as Google/alphabet, nor are they as geared towards harvesting user data and keeping it... I could be wrong, but I shall so some *cough* internet based searching for more information

dufferz6766yHadn't considered the gov buying/'looking after' their facilities. That's a very... Thought provoking idea... Thanks!
I just wondered really if there are even contingency plans for this kind of thing, I appreciate it is unlikely, but unlikely !=impossible so.. -
cursee171646yQuite simple. Such scenario will never technically happen.
CEO fucked up, new CEO will take over.
Management fucked up, new management will take over.
BOD fucked up, new BOD.
The whole organization fucked up, new organization will take over.
Much like any Country's government.
No matter how shitty the government has become, it doesn't mean the country will be wiped out from the map. Unless it's not a country and a village. But we are talking about Google and Alphabets. So they technically will exist forever.

Gerrymandered1What if devRant made this app just to see how to improve their own company without looking like shit?
What is everyone's opinion on companies/organisations 'too big to fail'...?
I was just pondering on how 'just Google it' has become so 'natural' as a way of saying search the Internet. The more I think about it, the less I like it.
I know the chances of them failing/crumbling are neary zero (hence the name) but if an org, Ie Alphabet, made some shit decisions and bankrupted their company, what would happen then? Any ideas? I don't mean in terms of social fallout, economic etc.
I mean in terms of network infrastructure, them being such a central part of 'the web', all their Dns services, their backbone links, Google drive, Google fiber etc. What would happen to all user data? Just be destroyed?
I've never 'seen' a large tech company collapse, but just wander as to how that process would work for such a huge organisation, and the literal mountains of data they have which will need destroying or relocating.
