A '''group entity''' is just any [[mob]], [[faction]], [[political party]], [[corporation]], [[union]], [[government]] or even [[nonprofit]] entity that has [[no body]] i.e. inherent biological identity of its own. Individuals, families, and species may not be group-entities, although anything beyond a single sexually reproducing being may well be called one. It is a very abstract term and is an alternative to such terms as [[online community]] that does not imply any common behaviors or traits between physical human or other animal communities, and organizational behaviors. This term is from anarchist discourse and may be controversial to some. See [[w:group entity]] for a deep analysis of why such entities tend not to behave like humans, or as if they care about humans. They influence [[Consumerium Services]] mostly by providing [[institutional buying criteria]], and, by making some [[threats]] that threaten them into [[worst cases]] by their body-less body-hating influence. The tendency of humans to form group entities to avoid responsibility is called [[limited liability]]. The way humans rationalize this, and pretend that they did not deliberately create the [[comprehensive outcome]], is called [[groupthink]]. If a group does something, '''no one''' is responsible even if ''all'' refused to stop it. The [[Consumerium Governance Organization]] should approve all arrangements with any group entity, if only so that [[legal trust]] issues remain clear. This is particularly important for such stuff as [[patent pool]] management or other [[Consumerium License]] provisions where groups might become constrained by dealing with Consumerium.
