None, all the big tech companies were build with the idea of fast growth as their primary guiding principle. Grow at all cost as long as their actions are not prohibited by law. This means that the companies' culture was build around that idea. It's very hard for companies' to change even when they want to do it but at this point I doubt they even want to change. So the answer is, not a single one.

There are a lot of smaller tech companies that have a good moral compass. Some of the hosting providers I have used in recent years (Nearly Free Speech and Mythic Beasts, for example) seem to.

Big tech? None I can think of, and the same applies to big business in general.

plus to the hosts

mine CALLS me when my credit card fails, shares a joke and says pay us when you get some money and a minute, all Canadian company.

though they have now created a monster anti spam filter that has all the discretion of a pitbull on crack and has to be lulled into believing that not everything is a threat to be shredded, but too there credit again, it's shocking to see the conveyor belt of garbage that has to be dumped, and amazing anything works.
