Businesses need to make money, but I hate for every app or website to have some anti-user poison pill. I’m not sure there’s a real solution here, just an arms race.

No solution without first examining, identifying, and criticizing the incentives that are induced when the profit motive is assumed as a central tenet of modern society. If the point of enterprise is to make money, then that's what they will do. If the point of enterprise is to do something else, then they will do something else.
