Orwell would be proud, or horrified, or both.
We can only hope these companies are treated as collaborators in the future.

Even the company that made the gas for hitlers gas chambers are still around
Oh noooo, that thing we warned people about when it came out is being misused in exactly the way we warned people it would be misused.

I’m tired grandpa. Too damn many stupid people in this world.
yeah, 100%, and there is no satisfaction in being proven right for this shit, the vindication is absolutely hollow. It sucks for everyone.
