Many things are stopping you. I see this response all the time as a counter to inappropriate behavior by monopolistic giant entities. It's the wrong way of thinking about the problem. The whole point is that they've gained too much market power for any individual to be able to stop them meaningfully, and that collective action using the power of government is the only way. Any argument that tries to talk people out of that is on the same side as the tech oligarchs, in my opinion. | ||||||||

I don't personally want them to stop. I like what they produce and how they produce it. As long as there are enough people like me there will be a market for this. | ||||||||

Voting with your wallet doesn’t mean stopping them. That isn’t what it is about. You shouldn’t get to choose to stop them because you don’t like their actions any more than I should be able to choose banning you from carriers because I don’t like your choices. | ||||||||
