I haven't decided how I feel about this, but emailing your senator is likely to accomplish absolutely nothing, so perhaps more severe behaviour is somewhat understandable.
- coderdude 16y agoBut remember who the action is towards. Private organizations. Not the government. Just private organizations who chose to disassociate themselves with another private organization. When you step outside of this media frenzy/bubble we're all in that's what it boils down to. Then some people didn't like that and they committed a crime against PayPal, Visa, and Mastercard.
- michaelchisari 16y agoNot just private organizations, but multi-national mega-corporations at the center of our financial system, with coffers that rival most nations GDP's, and, as Wikileaks has shown, a direct line to the most powerful governments in the world. So I think equating the targets of these virtual sit-ins with any private organization, like a small start-up with 5 employees, isn't really telling the whole story.
