> Companies like Facebook are getting rich off the infrastructure they provide, they are responsibility for the consequences of the technology they put out into the world.

I call this "externalization of costs". Private companies skim off the profit and leave the costs to society - be it in construction with the ÖPP (public-private-partnership) or "lease back" scams, or with social media where the victims of mobbing/nazis and police have to suffer.
