Consumers are a sleeping giant; an untapped power to demand better from tech giants, if only we had the discipline to boycott unacceptible options. If only we had the constitution to refuse injustices & prioritize the greater good above selfish short-term desires.

"If there was hope, it must lie in the proles, [...] if only they could somehow become conscious of their own strength, [they] would have no need to conspire. They need only to rise up and shake themselves like a horse shaking off flies. If they chose they could blow the Party to pieces tomorrow morning. Surely sooner or later it must occur to them to do it."

—George Orwell, 1984
