I can't get mad about "corporate predator" terminology, because I use it too even though I know better. But I do want to point out that it's misleading.
To the extent that you can describe the operational relationship between corporations and humans in traditional ecological terms, it's not predator/prey, but a form of domestication.
We aren't really corporate prey. Or constituent cells. The closest analogue in "wet" biology is livestock. We're chickens, not wild deer.
