Over the years I've found, in the grand scheme, unless the CEO murdered your family, who cares? I didn't buy Sony products for a couple of decades, right now I don't even remember why I stopped. I think it was around shit warranty handling. Meanwhile, I was removing viable options from my purchase pool.
More recently, I'm just trying to make my purchase decisions like I'm a business. Does the item at a given price fill the needs of the role? Does buying the year-old model at heavy discount fit the need? Avoid the top-tier release-day buzz, buy at a discount, use the tool as long as possible. These techniques collectively will stifle all the "economy" they're trying to make a profit from.
Vendors that are truly terrible will lose customers. One person's soapbox won't affect them, however, despite best efforts.
Samsung is great until you have to deal with their absolute shit tier support. Ill happily buy any other brand just to avoid that even if they most likely dont have anything better.
