This isn't so much about moralizing as much as it is businesses deciding what to do to make the most money. That doesn't mean you can't disagree with it, far from it. But I think the framing of, "these companies are imposing their morality on me" is a misdiagnosis. I don't think it's really a moral position for them, it's a product engineering position.
I would describe the situation as, "more and more of the world is controlled by large corporations, and I'm increasingly subject to their arbitrary and unaccountable decisions. Many of which make no sense from my vantage point."
