The thing is, if corporations make it illegal to reveal the truth to consumers, that they do merit ill will.
fpr example, Monsanto has won the right not to put genetically modified label on their produce because "it might scare the customers away".
Farming industries have now made it illegal to expose their illegal treatment of animals on their farms because it might harm their profits.
Apple only put a watch on their labour practices in China after the media exposed the child labour scandal. If the media hadn't done that, this would have gone on without our knowing and we would happily buy iPhones not knowing it was assembled by a 10 year old who doesn't go to school and instead works 12-14 hours day for cents a day.
how many people do you know personally know all this already?
they don't. corporations pay a lot of money to make sure they don't.
