I have often seen nouns used before gerunds such as in the following cases:
"Companies using fear marketing is a wrong practice."
"I disagree with companies using fear marketing to sell products."
I am wondering though, which is the subject (in the first sentence) or the object of the preposition (in the second sentence): "companies" or "using"?
