I agree that the laws are over-reaching, but not to the extent that you suggest. The Wikipedia article that you cite notes that these laws take one of two forms:
> (1) contract-focused laws that condition the receipt of government contracts on an entity certifying that it is not boycotting and will not boycott Israel; and (2) investment-focused laws that mandate public investment funds to divest from entities involved in boycotts of Israel.
Neither of these are bans on "personal boycotts". They are penalizing corporations which boycott Israel.

- s1artibartfast 3y agolook at the case law section. There are plenty of real people, mostly teachers, fired from their jobs because they refuse to certify.
