You have bumped into an "anti-feature," which is to say a "feature" no
customer in their right mind would ever want.  Anti-features are
intended to benefit the seller at the expense of the customer.  The
traditional way (that actually works--boycotts do not) to hit back at
this tactic is via legislation and enforcement of same.

David.
