I'd have thought Big Tech was the most libertarian coded business - Manousos comes across as more of a devout Catholic, with his icon of the Lady of Mount Carmel in his MG (also the patron saint of the Colombian police force, maybe a hint to his backstory) and taking the commandment "Thou shalt not steal" to it's logical extreme.
The whole show is packed with allusions to Christianity (the hive abandoning Carol for specifically 40 days, Zosia taking her to a high place to go trainspotting later like the Mount of Temptation, Manousos referring to the hive as evil like the demons Legion, Kusimayu abandoning a lamb after getting joined, etc.)
