Then why is it forced into everywhere and everyone and everything?

It's because of simple FOMO of companies. If they don't "invest" in it they will be left behind. Which is true. However, the way they invest is equally (if not more) important. E.g. MS is a good example of how not to do it.

Because they don't want you to realize that you have the power to reject garbage then have the government punish them for creating such waste.
