I'm not convinced that's actually true, however, even if you ignore the idea of a class-action, the more effective approach is a vast fleet of small-claims cases. Corporations are generally much better prepared and resourced to deal with mediation and/or class-actions. An influx of a huge number of small-claims actions in courts all over the place, OTOH, costs very little resources on the plaintiff side while having a much larger impact on the corporation, even if the corporation prevails in every case.
