Compromised by

Does "compromised by" in this context mean "appropriated by"?

Context:

During the 1990s, however, many of these activist and artistic strategies seemed compromised by the economic and technological developments of globalization. Newly empowered Euro- American and Japanese transnational corporations snaked out over national borders to cultivate “emerging markets” in underdeveloped countries and elsewhere. Global corporations such as Exxon/Mobil, Monsanto, or Philip Morris advertised their interest in the “community” and touted their “community investment”; in other words, corporate entities have taken on the mantle of community- building that was once the preserve of grassroots activism.
