Can't say I understand the point you're trying to make. Are you saying these things should not be hated?
No Facebook, Google, Microsoft, Spotify, or apple?
I guess Facebook is bad for it's… Well general shittiness… But they did invent react which a lot of the good parts of the internet use
What did Spotify do to deserve a spot?
Oh boy, a whole lot. I was compiling a list, but it turns out that Spotifys shady business practices has a whole wikipedia page. Not sure if it’s included in there but Joe Rogan. Just everything about the Joe Rogan deal. As well as their ties to the military industrial complex. It’s less “what have they done?” and more “what haven’t they done?”
Could all be summed up in the last one: capitalism
Well the camera one doesnt technically have to be capitalism.
Unity does not qualify as "internet thing"
Also if they're considered on the level as all these other companies there needs to be dozens more at that table before them.
Post in the comments additions to my list; I wanted to add more but I missed some.
- Windows: Bad. Linux: Good.
- Google Chrome: Bad. Firefox: Good.
- America: Bad… America: Bad.
All of "triple AAA" Gaming, i.e.: Activision-Blizzard, Ubisoft, Microsoft (classic), …
Got so many ad blockers about the only time I see ads is when I accidentally look at a billboard
The amount of times capitalism gets dragged into a thread that has nothing to do with economics or politics is, quite frankly, astounding.
edit: I get it, you are all replying the same thing. Point taken, capitalism has its hands in everything. My point: we don't have to circlejerk about it every 3 seconds. I would rather not delete this comment, but why isn't there a block notifications button on Lemmy?
It's almost like the economic mode of production touches and influences everything in our lives
You tankies have thick skulls. No one here is saying capitalism is good. That's beside the point
No one here is saying capitalism is good. That's beside the point
What is your magnificent enlightened centrist point, besides STOP TALKING ABOUT THE SYSTEM THAT AFFECTS THE ENTIRE PLANET WAAAAAAAAAAAAAH? 
we don't have to circlejerk about it every 3 seconds
You don't have to run interference for "not all capitalism" every 3 seconds, lib.
Eh, I agree with the general point and would like a better system but can we talk about other things ffs. The general atmosphere on here is so negative.
The general atmosphere on here is so negative.
If only we were more "nonpolitical" to fit your arbitrary and nebulous standards, we would seem more positive!
Did you like product? I liked product! Product was epic! Are you looking forward to next product? 
The advertising-thing always baffles me. Are you willing to pay for each and every service you just use completely for free? If not, you shouldn't see advertising as a "scourge".
I don't have much of an issue with advertising in itself
However
Online advertising nowadays is extremely obnoxious and annoying, and serves to track you, too. Add the fact that ads are free real estate for malicious actors to do whatever, and I think you can agree that they are a bigger problem than they should be.
I genuinely wouldn't mind ads if they were unobtrusive and not tracking me, but that's not the reality.
Don't forget about malvertising, that's probably a more imminent danger. If Google and other ad companies don't give enough of a shit about user to actually filter out malware ads, why should I give enough of a shit about their revenue to not use uBO?
I had been starting to develop a unity game just as a hobby. RIP.
