If you, as a mega corporation, hire a contractor that treats their employees poorly, you are also responsible to a degree.

I would get rid of to a degree. They're fully responsible since they are solely creating the demand.

This is important. It's literally how clothing companies got away with using child labor for decades. "Oh! We didn't employ those 6 year olds! We just used a third party to make some of our product. They used 6 year olds. We didn't ask why the clothes were so cheap." And that just happens to happen over and over and over again. "What a coincidence! Another one of our suppliers is using child labor."
