- siddboots 13y agoI don't think it's absurd at all. If the leak is an accurate depiction of reality, then it doesn't matter how culpable I think Google and Facebook are. What matters is that I can't use the services of those companies if I want my data to be private.
- alan_cx 13y agoWhy is it absurd? And which government?
- chmars 13y agoI actually boycott certain airlines. Yes, there are TSA rules but their implementation is very different. American airline staff ('airline', not 'Airlines') seems to operate on a paranoia level that is simply not compatible with the service level I expect from an airline. I want to be treated as a customer and not as a potential terrorist … other airlines flying to the US (and worldwide anyway) manage to do that.
- Ma8ee 13y agoYour government is owned by your corporations. Thus, the best way to get to your government is doing something the hurts your companies' bottom line.
- zobzu 13y agoBecause.. yours isn't, maybe. ha ha ha.
- gasull 13y agoYou can boycott traveling to the US, what a lot of people are doing because they don't want a pat-down.
