By not paying. Your continued tipping allows restaurants to not pay their employees a living wage and forcing the customer to subsidize them. Once a sizable percentage (let's say 30%) of customers don't tip, it will become progressively less effective as they have to jack up the percentages even more for people that do pay, resulting in more of them joining the non-tippers in a feedback loop. And then, maybe tipping will become a thing of the past.
