27. Don't forget Sony.

I haven't bought a Sony product since it was discovered that they'd installed root kits via their music CDs onto the hard drives of everyone who listened to the CD on a computer.

But they doubled down on assholishness when they violated their original terms of sale on the PS, and changed the firmware without consent, so people couldn't install a different operating system on the devices - an installation which was originally a major, Sony-advertised selling point.

And now, of course, their whole online-games thing.

Maggots.

I own a Sony product when you pry one into my cold dead hands...
