MODERATORS
Tesla
Blue Bell. They killed people with their listeria negligence.
swindled?
Epic Games until they continue developing UT4. Motherfuckers.
Coca-Cola, Apple, Samsung, HP.
My alternatives are none (water & coffee only), Android (OnePlus specifically for phones), LG/Toshiba for consumer electronics, Brother for printers and Dell or Lenovo for laptops.
Edit: Oh yeah and Tesla, not only because of Musk, I simply don't want to drive a tablet on wheels. I'm going for low-tech cars only. Some barebones Kia, Hyundai or Dacia.
Mostly anything USA since I was 12-15 years old. Israeli too since many years ago.
Coca cola, apple, google, Intel CPUs
Apple & Meta. I try to boycott Amazon in lieu of other online sellers but I don't always succeed. All non-union Starbucks. The latter is the one that has impacted my life the most because I used to spend my days studying at Starbucks. I Struggle to focus and concentrate on formal work of any kind while at home. We do have two unionized locations in town. They usually don't have any sitting room left, though because they are so close to the university campus.
Most of them.
I'm a big privacy and FOSS advocate so my list is kinda long, but the main ones are:
-> Google (I use GrapheneOS)
-> TikTok
-> Tesla (too much data collection)
-> Microsoft (self explanatory, however for some things I need to keep an w10 LTSC VM configured)
-> Adobe (same reasons as Michaelsoft)
-> OpenAI (same reasons as Michaelsoft, but I do use it inside a vm in no-account mode for some work related things)
-> Uber (oh man that app is digital herpes)
-> Spotify
-> Facebook/Meta
-> Dropbox
Beech-Nut baby food. They have a history of bad faith actions including multiple citations, years apart and after litigation no less, for "selling artificially flavored sugar water as apple juice."
Late to the apparent party but Phillip Morris . They own a shitton of food and pot licences.
