I think that legislation is the right choice when companies have proven to be repeatedly deceptive and manipulative about what they are actually doing.

If companies are hiding or downplaying what their true business models are, then consumers can not be expected to make an educated or informed choice about which companies to support or use.

When large companies with massive amounts of resources are also using them to spread propaganda, it becomes even harder for people to make informed choices.

So the solution is to use regulation to stop propaganda, enforce transparency, and allow consumers to make a fully-informed choice.
