I would not say I discriminate against a company or person, the word
discriminate has political ramifications that I would rather avoid.

I prefer to spend money at companies that use Linux and open-source
software for many reasons.  One of primary reasons, open-source software
is peer-reviewed software and I'll trust peer reviewed software over
closed source software like MS most of the time.
