Who are those "we"? How do you check that nobody of those "we" defects? Strikebreaking is a thing.
> If people show up at the grocery store with it
What if those grocery stores are actually the chain that's owned by one of those "bad" companies? Those grocery stores won't implement your policy, and now what? Plus I'm fairly certain you'll run afoul of some anti-discrimination law or another.
Really, if you're engaging in wishful thinking you may as well just wish for everyone to be nice and be done with it.

"Everyone be nice" is not something that can be engineered. As hackers, we can live it, and we should, but we can't hack towards it. > Strikebreaking is a thing. The kind of information hygiene that makes strike breaking a more difficult endeavor is the kind of thing we can hack towards. So many of our problems today come from how we've organized our information infrastructure (there's a lot of centralized authority in it). If we find ways to do it differently, if we practice ways to do it differently, then we may be able to achieve different outcomes.
