    Well yes, and we millions buy from them.

    We need to do both: us individually turning away from their products AND regulate them into changing/closing.

    The report is interesting but also a bit misleading. It includes all emissions from a product as being from the company that made it. So you buy a car and drive it around for 100 000km and the pollution from that driving is attributed to the company.
