For now, yes. Historically, corporations become more and more abusive until there's a public backlash that gets them regulated. Something like "there must be some clearly-defined way to get a response from a human" seems like plausible legislation.

Why do you need a law like that when the person can vote with their wallet?

  In a smaller town, "voting with your wallet" is just choosing between Wal-Mart and Amazon. Wal-Mart for many is just a bad, but for different reasons (well, not that different). Either way, you're only getting a choice between the two big companies that are killing smaller retailers. Eventually, politicians that like to (pretend to) champion small business (but then write law helping giant corporations at the detriment of small business) will have to put their money where their mouth is.

    What if you're in a small town and the only grocery store shuts down because it's not profitable. Should the gov't force them to stay open?
