This sounds like an excuse, "they do it too"
It's not an excuse to behave badly, but it is a reason the press should be more modest, morally, when attacking companies they think have. If the headlines were honest they'd say "Company X is almost as bad as us."

SV companies have all highly praised principles "don't be evil", "we protect your privacy", "bring the world closer together", etc. People start seeing a disconnect between mission statements and reality. A statement like "we don't do business with murderers" would be welcome.

Guy, keep quiet for a second and read what Paul is saying. You're just talking without reading. He's not entirely absolving tech companies of responsibility. He's saying the media should point out the fact that they themselves aren't clean as they portray themselves.
