Are there any online collectives that work together to stop this tomfoolery?

Same as it has been for the last 100 years: Vote with your money. If you don't like the product/service, don't buy it. Stop thinking you can force them to change their offering.

Vote with your money.

I really hate this phrase. It basically is saying that if you have more money then you have more "votes".

Or to put it in another way: If you have more money you matter more.

Yeah it is but it just irks me either way.

Edit:

I just want to clarify I am agreeing that in our current society that if you have more money you tend to be highly valued.

I am not agreeing that this is how it should be.
