Don't most big tech companies have an office in Dallas or Austin? I remember that the MS campus was huge when I lived in Dallas.

If "can't have been made in any capacity in Texas" is your criteria that might be pretty difficult.

I rarely buy from big tech companies and support them. I am a sunk cost for Microsoft, Google, Meta, Amazon ... all companies you have to pay me to engage with.

Example, rarely do I navigate to YouTube, I download the videos before watching them. Or if not, and I am presented with advertisement .. I say F' It, not watch, and move on with my life.

Computer components are a requirement and I limit my purchases as much as possible.
