7. PG&E

When PG&E tried to cover up and hide their role in the San Bruno pipeline explosion, I was shocked and couldn't believe their heinous actions. While the PUC found they falsified records, and t's unclear how it will affect this publicly traded company. A federal judge asked PG&E to detail the role they may have played in causing the Camp Fire, which killed more than 80 people. Judge William Alsup of the US District Court for the Northern District of California said the electric utility should also explain whether "reckless operation or maintenance of PG&E power lines" sparked any wildfires and answer additional questions about power line safety and wildfires.

Considering the reckless disregard they have for their customers, and their past track record, I don't have any faith in PG&E to be honest with regulators or the federal court.
