So if you haven't been killed by taking counterfeit or misleading cancer-drugs you don't have a right to call out the fraud?

You don't appear to have thought this all the way through...

Of your examples, only HP intended to make a crappy product. Apple and Samsung tried to make a better one (thinner, more battery life, etc) and just made some mistakes. Mistakes deserve pointing out, intentional dishonesty does deserve a witch-hunt. Every day you don't point this out to non-technical people is a day the scammers get rich from their scams.
