Carl's Jr. because of that awful sexualized man campaign. Awful ad campaigns also for Dove, Axe, Jimmy John's and Jersey Mike's. I'm sure there are others I'm not remembering at the moment.

Burger King and Chili's because of cavalier attitudes towards food poisoning.

McD's, Twitter, Susan G. Komen, commercialized fundraising of any kind, and Reddit for obvious reasons.

Lots of games I won't play and apps I won't download because of their ads.
