        The people can, but companies still need some kind of income to exist. The owners/ceos will just golden parachute away from the corpse

        In order to tangibly pay employees/rent/servers a company needs either profits, subsidies, or a ponzi scheme inflated stocks.

There was a real thought that Yahoo! could so something new. It obviously didn’t pan out, but for a hot minute, people really talked about Yahoo!
