They regard the industrial purchase and repackaging at a much higher resale price of this basic resource as an unethical trend. (Bottled watercosts about 1,000 times more than tap water.)
The target is mostly against the purified water resellers and I totally agree that its a waste. Their reference to the "privatization" of water is very interesting.
