  It's really more like going vegan. Individual actions are not a boycott. Boycotts require organization across a broad enough group of individuals that they can achieve a critical mass. Calling this a boycott reminds me of the young leftists who pop up on social media announcing a "general strike" with zero preparation. That doesn't mean it's wrong or silly. If you don't feel comfortable giving money to an entity no matter how large, it's your prerogative to stop doing so. But you shouldn't mistake that isolated action by one individual for political activism.
