Yes. EA has definitely done that a long time. Hasbro now owns the rights to Roller Coaster Tycoon (since they acquired what was left of Atari).
To answer the question of the post, I'd say EA, since their transgressions count an order of magnitude higher than anything Atari/Hasbro could even dream of, based on the sheer number of games/properties they own.
Who, as the makers of the original lootbox game (Magic), have managed to turn it into both ultra-shiny cardboard for collectors (Secret Lairs, Collector Boosters) and a pretty-reasonable F2P game that people actually can and do play for free (Arena).
And yet they keep fucking up with Dungeons & Dragons. Go figure.
