Nokia (mostly networking-related things nowadays) touts - or at least used to, haven't kept up to date - itself as one of the most ethical companies around.

> But isn't that true for every big corp, or even every public company?

So I suppose not really, no.

Additionally companies working on carbon-free energy might also serve as evidence. There are some big ones around.

I remember, nokia about to release the first smartphone, full linux with a clean plain and simple C written OS/platform... and... then nothing happened. I recall the user groups being puzzled on what was waiting nokia, they were ready, had it all super open source and LEAN open source, and the iphone happened and they were bought by msft... ??????????

		the most ethical company still goes for profit and earn shittons.... the most fragrant turd still smells of shit

Interesting exemple because the biggest investors in renewable by far are big oil companies.

So what should people do? Go or not go? Sadly, the world is never black and white.

		I think people should do/go where they have a peace of mind, whatever that place may be.

Nokia Siemens Networks provided the Iranian Revolution with their lawful intercept equipment under a special contract. They may have a good overall ethical track record but they don’t have a clean sheet.
