Companies are so removed from what users want, they only focus on what shareholders want to hear and don't consider that users will hate it.

But then users use it anyway for some reason. Many people care so little.

Attention is invisible until you take the time to acknowledge it. People will never treat it as a resource of the same value as these companies, because they don't even recognize it as something being taken away from them (despite that it is actually the most precious resource - our literal lives), and that disparity will always be profitable.
