Who? TFA:

"Comcast; Anheuser-Busch, the company behind Budweiser and Beck’s beer; wine company La Crema; and Diageo, the beverage company that produces Guinness, Smirnoff and other alcoholic drink brands"

That's not what I expected. I expected it to be a bunch of banks and tech firms. The explanation for that would have been easy. (Meta did already skip out, presumably for the obvious reasons. I'd be willing to bet Comcast is the same.)

For the liquor companies, I don't buy that it's a lack of funds, but an alternative explanation doesn't leap to mind.
