Valve has been making money hand over fist by getting kids addicted to gambling…

There are those who attribute evil to Lego, and they may have a case (historically or now).

Automattic has apparently gone insane, but that's not the same as evil.

Valve might be the closest to a HN-agree on "good company" - and even that has a comment below mine attributing gambling to them.

Ok, and when you apply for and get rejected from all those companies, what do you do then? Suppose you give me a list of literally every company you think is ok, and I were declined by all of them, then what?

This isn't a theoretical question for me. I've applied to and been declined from all the companies you listed (except tarsnap because I didn't see a careers page). What exactly do I do then? Do I then just decide that food is overrated and be content with not having paycheck?

Valve takes 30% of revenue from developers because they have cornered the distribution market. Their margins on the steam store are probably second only to the apple store's, another heinously immoral product.

It is only a matter of time...
