When you vote with your wallet, people with more money get more votes.

You can also vote with your application of skill. Don't build products using crippled software for people with lots of money. They sure as hell aren't going to build it themselves.

When you vote with your wallet the way that I described, the companies that act badly get fewer dollars. If they want to raise their prices more and more until 1 person is paying $1mil/year for their software, and he gets all the votes, that's fine by me.

At some point it's more profitable to put more money in marketing. Large portions of the market operate like this. People are easily swayed.
