The problem is that the general public doesn't care as much as you'd care about these things. If one were to call oneself a whistleblower by announcing that a company made the email signup 'opt-out' instead of 'opt-in', in all likeliness, no one will take it seriously.
And as long as people are willing to give attention, time, money or a combination in exchange of something, it's highly likely that this 'something' will remain profitable and there lies the incentive to keep doing it.
For instance, if one were to work on a browser, who do you think has a greater incentive to allow adblocking: Firefox or Chrome?
