Yeah there is no way to coordinate a critical mass of wallet-votes to convince companies to change, especially as long as their prime offering (pun intended) is convenience. There are people on this very website who will openly admit to comprehending the problematic nature of their participation in such systems and yet still justify it openly on the grounds that they have too much money to care and value their own time over the suffering of others.
Systemic problems require systemic solutions. To preempt an obvious rebuttal: shaping the landscape of choices that are available to consumers is literally how markets work so it's not like libertarians or other "free" market fanatics have a high horse when we introduce ideas like regulations on corporate behavior.
