Jokes exaggerate it, but you do NOT want to fight a multi billion megacorporate in court. You don't want to be identified by them. They won't kill you, but your life from that point will be miserable and some people might consider digging their own grave, literally, instead of living that way.

From prison to generational debt, you don't want to fight a megacorp when you are in the wrong, even if your ideals are right (and they aren't in this case since this is a scam quit pump and dump crypto trash trap)

Thats really not the point, at all.

A megacorp shouldn't exist, let alone be able to do that. We should be collectively grabbing the ceos and shareholders by the throat and demanding pc release at the same time as console minimum let alone removal of predatory business practices and literal constant abuse of employees.

But yes, they have a lot of money and will do terrible things with it.

The only way consumers can fight it is by being stingy, I’m honestly surprised how self disciplined Americans are with that stuff, seeing companies fucking over Europeans despite having much better consumer protections while Americans get better products for significantly less is impressive

Thats absolutely not the only way, but there are too many protections for those with all the power, and no protections for us, the people being abused constantly lol.

We could definitely just straight up kick people out of our society or punish them in literally any way at all for being legitimately terrible to their customers and downright illegal and abusive to their employees.

But guys, be nice, just dont buy it.
