Well, I proactively quit both my Amazon and Ebay accounts. The occasion was trouble with Chinese dealers, in which both Amazon and Ebay weren't helpful at all, but the main reason is that I simply have enough of soulless mega-corporations, that try to build monopolies.

This forces me to use smaller (often local) alternatives, and honestly I don't miss anything.

So my 2ct: Stop complaining, instead do something. Stop using Amazon, Google, Ebay, Facebook and the likes.

YOU are the one that makes them unavoidable, so just stop doing so.
