HBO, because of the last two seasons of Games of Thrones. I can't get over how easy the Night King was defeated and no more ice babies.
Facebook and Elon Musk's companies (both's effects on global society are way more egregious than other tech companies,) pretty much any company that wears faith on their sleeve
I’m over it now, but for 5 years I was anti-public transit. After working a 12 hour OT shift I took the train home. Sherriff was on the train and started checking peoples tickets. I opened my bag dug around literally 30+ other tickets, found my day pass and turned it over.
But I didn’t get a day pass that day, I got a one way because of my OT plans was supposed to be an Uber home.
So I got fined $250 for it. The crazies would just get pushed off the train but normals would get fined I guess. Pissed me off so much I just stopped using the public transit for half a decade.
Nintendo, EA, Blizzard, Epic, Huawei.
I still deal with every company people here are listing. I even really like some of them despite the owners views etc. (if you make a good chicken sandwich and beat your wife, I’m still gonna eat that sandwich while hoping you go to jail).
I have not seen anyone mentioning Reddit yet though, and that kinda shocks me. I know it’s not the same as giving them a dollar but they’ve received no eyeballs, add revenue or obviously content from me since the exodus.
Very, very few. I figure that all large companies are awful in one way or another; the only difference is whether we know about it or not.
I prefer to shop locally when it’s an option. I like feeling as if my business genuinely matters.
Not that I have progressed enough financially yet to be in a position to buy a Tesla Model S, it's gone from a dream car to something I'd be ashamed to own because of being disillusioned by who Elon Musk is over the past few years.
Caledonian Sleeper who carefully wriggled out of paying a refund on a booking cancelled by the March 2020 C***d lockdown.
Netflix Paramount Chick-fil-A Hobby Lobby
.... and whoever else seems to be run by bigots or ad pushers
Applebee's. They wanted to screw their employees during COVID.
And their food is mediocre.
apple,microsoft, google etc
Any company with an ad that makes me wait or click more than once.
Sony, Apple.
EA, Ubisoft and Blizzard are kind of on my soft-blacklist, if that counts. My greylist, I guess you could say. I can't say 100% I'll not give them money in future, but I don't want to. And they make it so easy to boycott them because they aren't making anything I give a shit about.
