The problem lies in the fact that looting hurts the wrong people. It's not the big corporations that suddenly see a huge drop in sales, after all, that is only a tiny amount of their global stock and it has been sold to the retailer already, it is the owner of the store that sees the most damage. And since there is no organisation, theres no way of telling if people are gonna loot a megacorporation outlet or a mom and pop store.
