From Capitalism to Corporatism - Treason Under A Different Name - Big Business Has Completely Sold Out To Government Power. Stop Buying Their Products or Be A Slave.

Excerpt:
"It’s not because of consumers that your Coke is filled with a scary product called “high-fructose corn syrup,” why your candy bar and danish have the same and why there’s corn in your gas tank. This is entirely the product of government agencies and budgets.
In free enterprise, the old rule is that the customer is always right. That’s a wonderful system sometimes called consumer sovereignty. Its advent in history, dating perhaps from the 16th century, represented a tremendous advance over the old guild system of feudalism and certainly a major step over ancient despotisms. It’s been the rallying cry of market-based economics ever since.
What happens, however, when government itself becomes a main and even dominant customer?
The ethos of private enterprise is thereby changed. No longer primarily interested in serving the general public, enterprise turns its attention to serving its powerful masters in the halls of the state, gradually weaving close relationships and forming a ruling class that becomes a conspiracy against the public."

It may take stronger measures if it's a direct approach.
That's why I keep urging a boycott and a return to buying only local products where possible.
(I take it that there are no Linux based solutions for your business.)
