Completely agree, but one thing:

help displace the monopolies

These monopolies are a social/legal problem. It can't be solved with technology. The increased FTC action in the US under the Biden administration are really a hopeful sign.

I am worried about the number of people who want to go in the opposite direction, which "ethically sourced" is simply code for.
