Apple, because their phones are shit, and they made their phones with child labour. Red bull because they haven't withdrawn their products and business from Russia like McDonald's did. Volkswagen, because they fucking lied on all of their vehicles with the emissions test. Blizzard, because they rape and sexually abused all of their female workers. Shell gas station from an oil spill they refuse to clean up. Riot Games due to them not completing my refund. KFC because I got sick from their food twice. Sam's club, because they thought my membership was expired even though it was not, and I clearly payed their stupid membership fees the day of, to shop in their warehouse they wouldn't let me shop, so I issued a charge back from my credit card company and never went back. Prism kites, more specifically the synapse models, fuckin main left cord just snaps in the middle without me being in a full headwind. Shite product, and company. Ford, because their engine mount placements for the escort were terrible, and I shouldn't have to remove part of the subframe to get it off, just terrible engineering. Now I drive a Toyota, and I'm happy

I hope adults made my Android phone.

Perhaps. But it's almost guaranteed that some sort of worker exploitation was involved.

yeah I'm an adult and I feel exploited every time I go to work. All I want is money for food and basic survival and In order to get those pittance paychecks I have to jump through all their bullshit hoops and pretend like I actually want to be there every day. Although I make it clear to plenty of people that There are a million other places I'd rather be.
