Name me 1 company that doesn't have questionable practices?

Remember the HP internal spying incident where the CEO spied on its board of directors with phone tabs?

There are shades of grey, but companies should be held responsible for their actions especially when the consequences are significant. For example, I would argue that MS's monopoly held back mass adoption of the internet for at least 4 years.

 

I hope someone already questioned this.

Simply, How would you come to this conclusion?

The Windows OS's supported internet since 95 and possibly earlier.  Microsoft did not have any control over the phone companies (who were the internet providers), nor did they control the hardware needed (modems provided by phone companies/PC OEMs).  Microsoft did not control the distribution of telephone lines or cable lines.
