Right, as evidenced by the Stop Killing Games movement getting over a million EU citizens to do a direct democracy, all on a shoestring budget, setting up multiple NGOs to counter lobby gaming lobbyists, and pursuing a broad swath of legal avenues to secure better consumer rights and/or actually have existing consumer protection laws actually be enforced, around the planet.

Oh, wait, no, thats nothing like just whining and then acquiescing.

Sure, yeah, there are a lot of hypocritical whiners.

But there's also a lot of people who are a bit more serious.
