Amazon, SpaceX, TwitterX, TeslaX, Uber, Nestlé, Google, Micro$oft

DeBeers, Blackrock, Exxon, Disney.

DuPont, source of our microplastic nightmare

Autism Speaks. It has a pro-eugenics mindset, so you'd think everyone would be boycotting it, right? Nope, in fact it's partnered with the Jim Henson company.

AT&T and basically all of the major US banks

United HealthCare

Oh wait, you CAN'T boycott them. The ultimate monopoly.

Bayer-Monsanto, John Deere, Nestle

Ticketmaster

Microsoft, although regulators sure as fuck help them make that impossible

Meta, Fox Corporation/News Corp, X

As far as which companies "deserve" it, it would be quicker to list the ones that don't.

Sorry if this has already been mentioned in the 224 (so far) comments... but another bad guy worth hating is

Hewlett Packard.

Their

"Hey, you need to have our proprietary ink cartrige in your HP inkjet printer plus scanner to print AND to scan as well. The scanner won't work when you are out of ink"

Is just plain fuckery.

Comcast / Xfinity. Have been forced to use their services for years until a viable alternative arrived in my neighborhood, paid $110 a month for internet to be down at least 2 days a month when my wife and I both work from home. All calls and tickets and emails were met with "you're not using out router and we don't see issues on our side, sounds like a you problem".

Almost left for ancient Century Link pipe when internet was out for 17 hours one day, called 3 times and finally got a competent person on the line not saying the above. Instead said they had done maintenance in my neighborhood and when they sent someone out to look at the uplink it was magically working again. Filed for a service refund thing since it was way below the promised availability and I had to reschedule meetings because my hotspot was slow and they gave me a $1.35 refund to my $110 bill that month.

Chick-fil-A

Most of them, but I'm just tired.

Bro name one that doesn't deserve it.

I'm sure I'm formatting this wrong, but..

Every auto maker lobbying against right to repair and every phone maker who remotely accesses people's phones.

In this thread:

Let's boycott the gaming company that we disagree with! Also I guess that company that's using literal child slavery for their chocolate. Quite the disconnect here, I don't think the people making Mario games deserve the same punishment as the people buying up all of the housing market because they can in order to rent out said houses to the same people who were originally trying to buy them

Tencent

all of them but alas we live in a society

Disney

What's a company that doesnt deserve to be boycotted?

Tobacco and oil companies. All of them.

All of the big ones
