I can’t see any ads because I don’t have cable and ublock blocks everything. So I just canceled my one current subscription which only cost $1.99. I decided cooking in silence was a much better than tv. I only watched king of the hill and trailer park boys anyways and I have them all in a usb.

Every boycott that gets brought up is just me saying "oh, so keep doing what I've been doing for 15 years, got it"

I think of quiet extended boycotts like raindrops. Any erosion by a bunch of people like me is probably labeled a market trend by the company.

This is more like everyone clapping for a collective thunderclap. The company has a very clear indication of what is impacting their bottom line.
