These companies and people that do evil with the money we give them must be brought to heel, should not be patronised. So what do we do?
Promote, suggest, encourage the use of ethical alternatives. Encouragement works so much better than shame. By shaming one another, we fragment the resistance we should all be trying to build.

Someone thinks "my whole family uses Facebook. If I stop, or worse, try to force them to migrate, I might make myself an outcast and close myself off from pictures of my growing relatives". what should we do? Say "Too bad for you. Take one for the team! Have the hard conversations, risk isolation from your family." We shouldn't demand such sacrifices from struggling strangers on pain of shame. We should, instead, help them to tranistion, suggest what they can do to fight in their own way.
