Like colonial powers, they happily claim territory through extra-legal procedures (although they are said to be far more intelligent than human beings, they can't understand our terms of service which kindly asks them to not crawl!). In the way they appropriate content researched and spun up by others, they are no different from the European colonial powers in the 16th through 19th centuries claiming lands and peoples with whom they had nothing in common. By force of server power and data centers instead of guns and cannon, they force themselves on the web and human knowledge, taking as much value as they can, in a way that would make Dutch and British East India companies proud.
