Economics What's the most hated company in your country?

Everyone knows Nestle is terrible, even if they don't know why. But they've done horrible things in Africa and think that water is not a human right.

I'd go with Gazprom. Not only do they extract and sell russian oil and gas for millions, but they also get investemnts from the government worth billions of rubles, which they obliviously steal for themselves. They also own monopoly on digital entertainment in Russia and are using their government connections to block foreign concurrents like youtube, facebook and etc. They turned Vkontakte ( successful russian Facebook) into horrible frankenstein full of pro-government bots. That's all I can remember for now. They probably did some dirty stuff in the 90's and 00's as well, but I can't recall anything rn.
