Write to every support channel you can find. Explain what Tor is. How
useful it is. Explain that banning Tor is not a solution because anyone
can use an open Wi-Fi access point and that people willing to break the
law can break into other's people computers to do their bidding.

Try to establish connection with the workers inside these companies.
They usually understand Tor better than management and inside pressure
sometimes works wonders.
