vote with your wallet here is to make a new phone company that uses only these user owned devices.

its not particularly feasible to do for the end customer, similar to trying to buy EVs in the US when the upstream dealer decides whata available for you.

vote with your wallet is for the ultra-wealthy.

the rest of us can vote with our votes instead, and get much better results

Not sure where you live or what votes you are making, but "much better results" is hardly what I've seen or expect from US politics, politicians, and the uber wealthy that run the corporations that dominate many of the most important aspects of our daily lives.

Target has been losing a lot of money with people deciding to ship elsewhere, it wiry, it just takes a lot of people to get together and do it

You're kidding right? It seems like every other car around here is a Tesla or some other EV. It's mostly Teslas and trucks really.

		Yeah, I don't understand the parent comment, buying EV's in the US is even easier than ICE vehicles in most states. Now if they are talking about BYD being blocked in the US, so access to extremely cheap EVs, much of Europe is doing the same thing.
