AVG Corporate Office

AVG Antivirus was founded in 1991. It operates as a subsidiary of Avast Antivirus Technologies.

The initials AVG stand for Anti-Virus Guard.

The production of a free version enabled the company to grow substantially. Clients can purchase more advanced features, but the basic antivirus software is free to use.

As of 2021, the company states that it has 200 million active users and another 100 million who use the software on their mobile devices.

As of 2014, there are numerous reports dating back to 2012 that the AVG SafeGuard Toolbar installs itself without the consent of the user, as a side effect of installing other applications. It uses quite a bit of RAM and once installed, it is virtually impossible to completely remove it.

Despite rave reviews, the software is not without flaws. One hacker found that they could trick the software into becoming data wipers.

AVG maintains a corporate office in San Mateo, California.

Olin Corporate Office

Olin Corporation was founded in 1892 by Franklin Walter Odin. The company manufactures ammunition, chlorine, and sodium hydroxide.

The company has a long history of mishaps and malfunctions, which endangers the lives of those who live near or work at company plants.  

Olin Corporation has expanded via the acquisition of other companies.

In May 2007, Olin agreed to buy Pioneer Co. Inc., a chlor-alkali products maker, for $414 million.

In 2010, an equipment failure at the asbestos-producing McIntosh plant released caustic soda into the atmosphere. Residents claim that the plant frequently releases chlorine into the atmosphere while also complaining that they are not adequately informed of the leaks and possible dangers.

In December 2022, workers in Alabama claimed that they were regularly exposed to asbestos for long periods of time without the company informing them of the dangers or the exposure.

Olin Corporation is listed on the NYSE under the ticker symbol OLN.

Olin maintains a corporate office in Clayton, Missouri.

Floyd Home Furniture Corporate Office

Floyd Home Furniture was founded in 2014 by Kyle Hoff and Alex O’Dell. This pair of entrepreneurs began business by selling a single item- the Floyd Leg, a clamp stand that turned any flat surface into a table.

Soon the company expanded with the Floyd Bed and then the Floyd Sofa.

Hoff and O’Dell knew that most furniture companies today use the same basic design and mass-produce furniture with lots of waste involved. These businessmen wanted to revolutionize the industry by using simple designs that never go out of style and using high-quality materials so the furniture will last.

Hoff notes that the company keeps parts in stock, so if a leg should break off the sofa, you can buy a single leg and repair it. This is something no other furniture company does.

There are numerous reviews of the company’s products, the majority of them good. Even companies like Gear Patrol call some of Floyd’s pieces “the most exciting pieces of furniture”.

WildTangent Corporate Office

Wild Tangent was founded in 1998 by Alex St. John & Jeremy Kenyon. The company provides game services via mobile phone apps and is partnered with several computer manufacturers, such as Dell and HP, to provide games as a part of their prepackaged software.

The company’s service reaches over 20 million monthly players in the United States and Europe with a catalog of more than 1,000 games from nearly 100 developers.

While many games are free with advertising, WildTangent makes money through a combination of online sales, subscriptions, advertising, and micro-transactions using a proprietary micro-currency called WildCoins.

WildTangent’s catalog includes over 1,500 games from 3rd-party developers, with at least 30 games being produced in-house by developers at WildTangent’s game studio.

Some users complain that the games slow down their computers or are intrusive to the user experience.

PC Magazine wrote in 2004 that although the programs were “not very” evil, some privacy complaints were justified as the program’s user manual states that it may collect name, address, phone number, e-mail, and other contact information and could distribute the collected information with the user’s consent.

WildTangent maintains a corporate office in Bellevue, Washington.
