maybe you consider these weak points in support of the argument, and I&#x27;m not certain I agree with all of them either, but its a starting point. here, first few things off the top of my head:<p>1. highest market cap of a major tech company that is a) an important part of masses of people&#x27;s daily lives, b) working on experimental projects that will not realize their fruits in the short term, c) has intimated a progressive vision for society.<p>2. has the necessary funds, personnel resources, knowledge base, and lobbying power to accomplish ambitious goals.<p>3. category definer for the domain of internet search advertising, which is actually a bigger deal than you make it out to be. this corresponds to a very basic human need: finding what you&#x27;re looking for, including things you&#x27;re looking to buy.<p>4. philosophically speaking, seems to have an actual grasp on what it is they are doing beyond the simplistic definition &quot;making money&quot; or &quot;increase shareholder value&quot;. their actions are (if you believe their own statements about it anyway) guided by a coherent vision to &quot;organize the world&#x27;s information&quot;.<p>5. has already changed the way people speak and think about using the internet, which is the civilizational mega-project of our time that will have irreversible impact on human culture from this point forward.
