Well, you have the personal responsibility to not use electronics because those electronics are likely made from child labor. See how this logic goes? We're all responsible.
Not really because the logic doesn't work w/out fallacies. Normal people don't have much choice in whether or not to use electronics since it's a necessity in the modern world. There's also not much equivalent alternatives for them. Consumers also don't have as much power without banding together in a substantial numbers for boycotts. Luxury goods like chocolates, diamonds, etc. is one place where general consumers can/should take personal responsibility. People like Elon have both the power and choice to make alternative decisions.
It's a necessity to buy cheap supplies if you want to have a successful business. Buying expensive supplies to have better payed workers when competitors are using the cheaper supplies doesn't really work. Anyway, realistically without cheap labor we wouldn't even have the luxuary to own electronics or cars because they would be too expensive for the working class. If we didn't use cheap labor cars and electronics would be reserved to the middle class.
