No business is a force for good. They are all there to make a profit. If they appear to be doing good, it's because that image is one that they feel is profitable. It can change at a moment's notice if they decide that going a different direction is profitable (e.g. Twitter).
people will sell insurance for just about anything. for example, you can buy alien abduction insurance that will pay out if you are abducted by aliens.

It took me a while to accept cloud storage but I use it now. I backed up all of our family photos on Google photos.
