Why can we only ever hold the consumers liable? Why do people like you never condemn the creators and those who sell these products?
Currently the only way to do that is to not buy dumb shit. What is condemning the manufacturers supposed to do? Make them shift uncomfortably on top of the pile of money?
Because people buy them, they won't stop making them whilst they sell. Stop buying them and they'll stop making them. It's not like the are necessary.
Because sometimes the consumer is the boss.
