Tencent only owns 20% of Discord's shares, hardly a controlling amount. If you really don't want to give a dime to Tencent (and I certainly don't), you'll pretty much have to stop using the internet or playing video games.

That's a little bit overreacted, isn't it. This is a list and it's not that hard to avoid this games or companies if you don't want to support Tencent. And some of these companies are also best avoided for their own reasons.

okay, shouldn't be that hard to DuckDuckGo a more updated list if you want :) Also nobody is forced to do this, it's just good to know what you are supporting with your money.

The more updated list is ridiculously lengthy and not very obvious. An example is Riot Games not in that list.

As if I needed any more reasons not to touch League of Legends.

But that's the first one on the list...

Oof, my bad, somehow skipped past that and only registered epic games, but yeah, it's still missing other studios
