In my naivety I build a startup that fixed a problem for a fortune 500 company thinking they would be delighted. They weren't. These big companies are staffed by individuals who are focused on their career and will do absolutely anything to extinguish your company/idea and pretend it was their idea and champion the company's initiative. It's disgusting but it's reality and if you are a founder be ready for it.

That's the majority of the people in the world. Not just Fortune 500 execs.

Of course, we are subservient to and dependent on an economic system which both incentivizes and enforces this type of behavior.
