Do you honestly believe that complaining on Lemmy counts as "doing something about it"?
I only know about this thing because of this post. I'm not going to buy it, but do you see that what you're doing is getting the word out and doing blizzards advertising for them?
As a consumer we can use our choices where we spend to lead companies one way or the other. Spreading the word to not buy something is "doing something about it". How effective it may be here in Lemmy, probably not very much, but it's something.
