Boycotting large companies rarely works without a highly organized campaign and participation by the masses. Unlikely in the case of Apple and their very popular iPhone. I agree, though, that we need to demand respect as customers.
- nazgulnarsil 17y agoit's a mistake to think that this is "activism" or about "raising awareness". This isn't about saving the world, it's not about trying to drive apple out of business or even to force them to change their business plan. It's simply buying products that mesh well with your needs. Locked down platforms don't mesh well with my needs, so I buy open platforms. Every purchase sends a signal to the market.
