The Evil List: Which tech companies are doing the most harm

On come on, this is nonsensical click-bate. How can you declare with a straight face that Baidu

>which controls two-thirds of China’s online search market, appears to have been active in suppressing information about the 2019 pro-democracy protests.

Is a less evil company than Airbnb

> some investors were purchasing New Orleans properties, evicting their tenants, and converting them into short-term rental spaces, aka Airbnbs

You might as well insist that glass bottles manufactures are evil because their product is used to make Molotov Cocktails.

Quite curious that the mainstream media didn't make the list. I'd put them as #1 every since they discovered realtime analytics and largely became clickbait generators that are basically DoSing their readers.

This article in particular is exemplary of the clickbait garbage they produce.

Classifying companies and putting them in a evil list doesn't make sense. They're there to make money and they won't look at the ethics or morality issues they way we, as society, do. They will cheat, use the legal loopholes, etc, to be more profitable. Besides, it doesn't make sense to say that some of them are not "voluntarily" being evil. I just hope that the new cadre of entrepreneurs will have some "social-political responsibility" education and practices, but I really doubt it will change the course of history.

If helping the US government = evil, then why are none of the big defense contractors on the list. I worked for one, an email went out to support the companies PAC to lobby for contracts and support politicians. Do you think it was to support anti-war or pro-war candidates? That's pretty f*g evil.
