2 ways to go back:
Corporations become less greedy.
Consumers and businesses stop tolerating abuse and consider other options that will temporarily inconvenience them.
Neither one seems likely. If it were we simply wouldn't be here in the first place.

That's great but it takes more than 1, or even 1M people. It has to be enough people that anti-consumer shitfuckery is no longer profitable.
