i had an idea, what if there was a website that showed companies that are know to be corrupt or engaged in unethical pratices.
this could be a hub to easily show people companies they should not support and why.

Reopen The Consumerist.

They famously gave EA the "Worst Company of the Year" award, complete with a golden poo. Although that was subjective (there's definitely worse companies), it had an impact.

Generally these kind of websites turn into companies that take hush money to delete bad reviews, eg glassdoor/yelp

i guess so, but the point in not to shame, it is so consumers can make informed decisions when chosing a company to support.
