That's my point. I don't understand why you'd undertake performative protests against an idea you can't triumph over. Do you remove your songs from Apple Music because of the Client Side Scanning or Push Notification scandals? Would you remove your songs from Bandcamp because Epic made Fortnite and diminishes the tragedy of real war?
Extrapolated to the extremes of "I don't want megalomaniacs publishing my music" you just end up with nobody ever hearing your songs.
I feel like your chosen examples are very disingenuous. If you're comparing data harvesting/leakage and video games to the atrocities caused by Big Military and the direction it's headed, you must be very disconnected from the real human casualty and suffering.
But to answer your point, yes. People have the autonomy to not do business with individuals and corporations that don't align with their values. It's a personal choice. You may not understand it, but if more people had convictions like this the world would likely be an entirely different place.

A politician you hate could play it a campaign rally.
