Good thought, but corporations don't care, and a whole lot of folks that play the corporate game won't, either. Money will still be made. Careers will still be advanced.

For myself, I enjoy what I do. I write software that I want to use, in a way that makes me feel good.

The people in those pockets will have to use their discernment to figure out where the next pocket is located. But it can't be something that everyone can easily do.
