Vote with your wallet on services that don’t take it seriously. You can’t pick and choose on everything unfortunately, but building it into your personal vendor selection process is a valuable practice.

I agree with your sentiment about fighting for your rights by not using these companies but you have ask yourself why people are using them in the first place. These issues tend to be multifaceted such as living in an area where medical care is not readily available/accessible. Maybe these people would need to drive long distances to see a Dr. Perhaps the local Drs don’t have appointments readily available resulting in appointments weeks or even months away. The issues is with loose legislation in a capitalist economy where venture capitalist see a way to make a lot of quick cash. People need better representation.
