There is a clear difference between the global issue of famine and actively choosing to work for an arsehole corp.

The problem itself does not matter. If the nature of any solution relies on willful global compliance, it’s not going to be very effective at whatever it’s trying to solve.

Every society fundamentally relies on willful compliance. Sure, you can force a few outsiders, but once a sizeable population stops being compliant, it just breaks down.

Hence why the internet doesn't work well.
The internet is not a society. The internet is all societies. Hell, more and more it's not even human societies.

Denied. One can choose not to be an active element in that problem.

You're saying that murderers shouldn't be blamed for murdering?

I'm saying telling people they shouldn't do something is about as useless as farting in the wind. Blaming someone does nothing, it's the force of action behind the words that mean something.
But, because this person could be anyone, anywhere your words are hollow and empty. You are impotent to stop their future actions.
