Hopefully the lesson people are slowly learning is to walk away from these systems.

It's not that easy. My Blizzard account is over 10 years old - never thought they'd go down hill so much. What's the solution, to never create accounts online anywhere? Even if a service looks good and you support it, a corporation like Activision can come along and have their asshole CEO infect everything.

Walking away from my account now means throwing away a lot of money spent on it.

So due to sunk cost the better choice is to continue supporting bad behavior?

I'm not supporting them, I haven't bought anything from Blizzard since the last Protoss SC2 game ages ago. But I don't want to lose access to my games.
