There's already a switch ongoing to cobalt-free batteries (half of Teslas produced in 2022 did not use cobalt batteries).
I don't really think that's the answer. We should be compensating these people accordingly for what they provide for us.

No, we shouldn't have to pay higher prices. The people at the top should be making less profit.
Unfortunately, in places like Africa, there are just fewer people with an egregious amount of wealth. Even if we paid higher prices or the people at the top made less money, most of what is being made is being siphoned off by those exploiting the workers.
sure, but that goes for any product imported from/outsourced to a country with less worker rights.
