The Cato Institute has been pushing for class action suits for exactly this type of situationhttps://www.cato.org/multimedia/cato-daily-podcast/libertari...

Class action suits are a thing.

In court they can do a class action, so little reason not to.

Class action is the reverse of what you want here. You want endless people suing them, all individually if at all possible.

Might be time for a class action suit!

There's a reason this is a class action lawsuit.

Sounds like an opportunity for a classic class action lawsuit.

Shouldn't this case be a class-action suit? How come there isn't one already?

An argument about what mechanism of law should be used, who has jurisdiction isn't disingenuous.A class action lawsuit could likely work. This doesn't need to be a rule per se. These companies are behaving poorly and it should cost them billions - but we don't need to create red tape every time this happens.

Maybe someone can get a class action lawsuit together on this.
