EA, I'm not excusing your anti-consumer practices, but there's no way in hell you deserved to be voted 'Worst Company in America' two years in a row, that's a fact. The only reason you ever won that is because the internet is full of introverts who only focus on the smaller picture, ignoring mass corruption or downright illegal and manipulative actions in favor of focusing on online inconveniences and, arguably, lackluster products.
And because the internet also tends to be a vindictive ***** that LOVES to hold a grudge, I don't think you'll be digging yourself out of the hole anytime soon.
I voted for them for the last poll, not because they're the worst (faaar from it) but because they cared about it.
Do you think that Bank of America or companies like Goldman Sachs care ? pfff they don't give a s.... about it. The "firm" don't care because they're already milking you. So, please, don't make generality, everyone is different (even if, i agree, some can be as you describe) it undermines the rest of your post which should not be the case since it's interesting.
I voted EA because they're able to do better and to change. Some announcement about "not making a Star War game from the movies" or postponing DAi for examples are good first steps. But, as a pc player, it's not good enough, Orign must not be mandatory, put your games on steam, stop milking IP (like the Sims3's store or your sport's games) and forget the "always online" for Simcity.
After that, well, microtransactions of course, not forgetting poor Dlc and never, never say a single time "pay2win".
A this moment, i'll honest and vote for you. Until that, i'm boycotting any of your game.
