2k25, what's the worst enormous tech company?

Larry and David Ellison already formed Paramount Skydance (which includes CBS), and may soon control...

Tik Tok (Oracle is working with Silver Lake and Andreessen Horowitz to buy it, in a deal negotiated by...the white house?)

and are bidding to take control of Time Warner Discovery, which owns CNN

2025 could be the Ellison's year to finally lose their underdog status for evil and really step into the spotlight

i'm back on microsoft now i think. we've come full circle

what's microsoft's case this year?

supporting israel with genocide software whilst also spearheading the massive AI bubble that's going to end the US economy

Palantir seems the most big-brother evil at this moment

X/Twitter

^^

X/Twitter as an extension of Elon Musk's ego and reflection of his politics, certainly qualifies as enormously evil, but does it qualify as an "enormous tech company" by any other measures?

I’m even more old school I think Digital Electronics can make a big evil comeback

nintendo is the worst enormous tech company. no nintendogs at the last nintendo direct, what gives

X/Twitter as an extension of Elon Musk's ego and reflection of his politics, certainly qualifies as enormously evil, but does it qualify as an "enormous tech company" by any other measures?

While they are technically separate companies, I tend to think of Musk's companies (X, Tesla, SpaceX and its subsidiary Starlink) almost as a single entity given shared management. And I find Twitter/X more worrisome than Facebook, Google, etc of late because a widely-used social network has been actively repurposed as a platform to boost far-right ideologies across the world (such as AfD in Germany) as well as in its home country. Some will chime in saying other tech companies have done this too, but for those it tends to be a passive rather than active effort, such as algorithms feeding far-right content to people who view other far-right content. Not their CEO retweeting posts from bigots, misogynists, and Nazis.

Oh, and all of those Musk properties range from the strongest in their field to outright monopolies

so yes, enormous tech company

I thought these were polls, yes X by far the worst

The Elonigarchy - X/Tesla/Palantir = no contest

I thought these were polls

unfortunately due to budget cuts and the loss of a key grant, polls on the worst tech company threads have been sacked for the forseeable future :(

Whenever I see a picture of Larry Ellison I think it's Mickey Rourke:

The explicitly, psychotically fascist Palantir gets my vote:
