"Deaf corporations" since they cannot hear, "Divine corporations" since they won't listen to you, "Nosumers" as the opposite of prosumers and a nice play with no-sum (you heard it first here)

I like the brainstorming. "Deaf corporations" I think nails the concept and is easy to understand. I don't think its quite snappy enough to roll off the tongue or the keyboard though.
(Although if we don't come up with anything better off the cuff, we could just start calling them "deaf corporations" and then someone moar cleverer might come up with something better later)
I really don't like it as a term, because Deaf people can communicate just fine, thank you. (Also, as a practical concern, I have an interest in Deafness and signed languages, and get irritated by phrases like "turned a deaf ear" which pollute my search results.)
