>It is clear that the villains in this story are Meta and Google, who have taken advantage of shareholders to line their own pockets. Meanwhile, Apple has been a hero to shareholders by returning capital through buybacks. It is unfair that these two companies have transferred so much wealth from investors to executives, and I hope that something will be done to change this in the future.

How? Without the employees reward system, Google and Meta may not have had the same growth?

There is no doubt that apple is a quality company. If I had to back a winner in moving to a VR/AR world it would be apple.

Google pay is already dogshit compared to other Faangs. People are just going there for prestige. You are saying they pay more. Come of your high horse. Without those RSU regards like you will work there

You are delusional if you think shareholders deserve more compensation from company buybacks and profits than employees who actually produced it.

Voting rights and ownership are two distinctly different things, but you’re incorrect if you think the Class A shares of Google(GOOGL) don’t impart either.

Class B shares are held by the founders and have 10X voting rights of Class A shares.

Class C shares confer the same ownership as Class A shares, but do not have any voting rights.

Either way, the collective ownership structure of the business ultimately decides how cash flows are allocated.
