Alright sorry if I was unclear. I wasn't saying that you specifically claimed companies are evil. But there is a general sentiment / understanding that companies are (being used as a tool for) doing evil things in general. I suppose whether you think that companies are (being used for) doing more good than bad is a different question, so let's not get bogged down in that.

My point however is that companies have no agency of their own. Their age doesn't really matter for that. There are guns that are older than all living people too. If somebody used a flintlock pistol to go around robbing people that wouldn't make the pistol a "godlike eternal entity". Or for that matter if somebody used a 200 year old shovel to create a really nice garden (in the case you believe companies are a net positive).
