And a vending machine in my apartment lobby I would also not be OK with-- not unless the homeowner'ss association is getting a cut of it.

Yes, because the HoA is going to use that money to fix the pool. Not.

Well, you know what they say. In theory, there's no difference between theory and practice.

In practice, there is.

If there was a body analogous to an HoA in this case, we could argue about whether what it is doing is effective or correct.

There isn't, though. We've paid real money for virtual real estate, and those who sold it to us have also put in vending machines so they can sell us housewares. Sure, we COULD ignore it, but that isn't really the point.
