Agree with the point that it's mostly to extort larger firms who do in fact operate businesses there.

The primary benefit is resource usage and orchestration.

Rather than duplicating entire aspects of an OS stack (which might ne considered wasteful) they allow for workloads to share aspects of the system they run on while maintaining a kind of logical isolation.

This allows for more densely packed workloads and more effective use of resources. This is a reason why the tech was developed and pushed by google and adopted by hyperscalers.

I wonder if it applies to the kind of software that is more complete like anything with a UI etc. If I get the final result the tests don't mean much to me.

The problem is that in cases like these it's extremely difficult to prove such a thing, especially considering it's over many decades and potentially dozens of people.

There's also a bit of practical concerns where criminal prosecutions don't want to pick cases that are tough to win as it'll be resource intense to pursue them.

Of course like the Volkswagen situation you reference (in Germany) where the corporation operates may impact criminal prosecution.

This is the part of the previous comment to which I was responding, giving just one example of how it's not the case. Limited Liability corporations protect business owners of all wealth levels. Just correcting a patently false claim.

I understand your concern about thread topic, but it's just not really applicable to my point above.
