    I should go to my local farmer’s market to sign up for Internet service, or to buy a cell phone? The big industries are so heavily dominated by massive colluding corporations that “don’t shop there” is not a tenable solution.

      Internet service is a valid problem and I’m with you there. But those other examples all have alternatives. Dont like apple/Samsung there are dozens of alternatives like OnePlus or RealMe. Don’t like Verizon/att go with mint or visible or ting. You have options. Don’t get discouraged.
