They actually can't. It's not a private company and they have a legally binding fiduciary responsibility to their shareholders.

They actually can. They just have to convince their shareholders that those pro consumer changes would cost less in enforcement battles and increase revenue by bringing in more customers.

I'd be more likely to stop boycotting Disney if they made those changes and I'm not alone in that.
