Then they should seek alternatives. Electing to not participate in a voluntary agreement is always an option.

No, sorry. Given the terrible job scenario and way too suppressed wages, "voluntary" is too much of a reach.

Seeking alternatives in tandem with regulation?

Yeah. Us all saying these over exploitative companies are OK?

No way.

Fact is, these companies, and many others, simply do not have to be as toxic to people as they are, and because of that, I am perfectly fine with attempts to clean things up.

Or, they can do it.

I do not care which, only that improvement happens.
