Well written, I agree.

I've been thinking a lot lately about two different aspects of this same problem.

We are complicit in our vendor's deeds. If businesses stopped buying ads and server time from these companies, the situation would change rapidly.

We are complicit in our entertainer's deeds. If individuals stopped viewing or engaging with content on these platforms, especially paid content, the situation would change rapidly.

What's someone with a 7-digit annual ad spend to do? (Avoiding social ads is easy, search ads are harder to replace.)
