Hate the game, not the player. Being mad at the underpaid support guy won't get you anywhere, being nice might.

Capitalism trends towards monopoly, and a monopoly doesn't have to give a shit about how they treat customers as customers have no choice. So a radical(as in, rizomatic) solution would be to make people aware of the actual problem and claim for better regulation or lobby if you have the power to do it. Now for a personal solution, good luck (:

Whoa whoa, was I mean? I tried to be as clear, polite, and light-hearted as possible. Can you tell me which part of this chat you thought was mean?

"You: Eduardo, do you think that this is like regular data, but sparkly? You: I don't feel particularly sparkly. "

Ok, maybe mean wasn't a good word choice. I just assumed you were kinda mad, and with reason to be, my point is being nice to people usually works better than demanding what's "right". It's their job to drive you into surrender, they're trained to do it, unless you overcome the medium abstraction and gain some empathy, you won't get anything.
