As if individual consumers have any ability to negotiate contracts. This is a main case for what government regulations are for. When the individual consumer doesn’t have ability to negotiate and companies are abusing something, then the individuals can only go to the their elected representatives to get it remedied. If the company doesn’t like the rules they can let some other company step in.

You have. You're just not willing to pay for it. You also have the option to walk away.

"This is a main case for what government regulations are for." - No. There is no cost to be internalized here.
