The problems were created because incentives aligned for people to make decisions that lead to the problem. The only way to revert it is to change the incentives. And that can't be done by just me or you.
Yes, but you aren't going to get enough people to change their decisions to have an impact without changing their incentives.
Right now people are incentivized to use these "free" services because they feel like that's what is in their best interest. And to be honest, they are probably right in the current state of the world. I would be significantly worse off if I refused to use any Google services. I literally wouldn't be able to do my current job.
Making any type of change isn't going to come from us, but from regulators who force change.
