Which company isn't Evil Corp? I can argue for most every company small and large out there being "evil" in some tangible way.

  Worker coops?

  No. Don’t fall for this. Just because every company has some aspect that is bad, it doesn’t mean they are the same. You can differentiate. It is not hard. Some extremes: Patagonia vs. Outbrain. Gates Foundaton vs. Juul. Same? By that same rationale all humans are evil, so there is no point in differentiating.

    I never said they were the same but rather that from someone's perspective your employer is also evil. Yet you are fine working there. That same feeling and justification and reasoning applies to someone working at a company that you view as evil. The line in the sand you chose is fairly arbitrary and you shouldn't view yourself as a paragon of ethics versus someone who chose a line slightly further away.

      Both these things are true. 1. A line in the sand is arbitrary. 2. There are huge differences in the ethical behavior of companies (as there are among people) 2 is the one that is important to recognize and where we in tech should have conversations. 1 is a semantic distraction and an excuse to avoid responsibility.

    I don't know man, I think Juul is pretty questionable too.
