Can we even boycott black rock?

Autism Speaks. It has a pro-eugenics mindset, so you’d think everyone would be boycotting it, right? Nope, in fact it’s partnered with the Jim Henson company.
Can you elaborate on the “pro-eugenics mindset” at all?
Tldr:
It’s founded and ran by two boomers who have an autistic grandson and were very very upset he had autism. That’s the generation that would actively try to avoid diagnosis and help because they thought the label was worse than the disease, preventing an entire generation from getting assistance.
So its less about empowering people with autism, and more fearmongering how bad it is and that someone with autism shouldn’t have any agency or choice in their lives.
I didn’t dig very deep, but yeah, I could see how that organization does a bunch of problematic shit
The first problematic thing it does is have the name Autism Speaks while not in any way providing a voice to autistic people.
Microsoft, although regulators sure as fuck help them make that impossible

Bro name one that doesn’t deserve it.
Newman’s Own brand.
Pategonia, who created the B-corp
Comcast / Xfinity. Have been forced to use their services for years until a viable alternative arrived in my neighborhood, paid $110 a month for internet to be down at least 2 days a month when my wife and I both work from home. All calls and tickets and emails were met with “you’re not using out router and we don’t see issues on our side, sounds like a you problem”.
Almost left for ancient Century Link pipe when internet was out for 17 hours one day, called 3 times and finally got a competent person on the line not saying the above. Instead said they had done maintenance in my neighborhood and when they sent someone out to look at the uplink it was magically working again. Filed for a service refund thing since it was way below the promised availability and I had to reschedule meetings because my hotspot was slow and they gave me a $1.35 refund to my $110 bill that month.
Cox too; Comcast’s evil twin that never gets as much hate. They do the same bullshit Comcast does, and get away with it. They even put a freakin’ data limit on a hardwired connection so that they can charge you more money.
Yep, those datacaps are complete nonsense and they know it. My bill was so high because I had to pay for unlimited data because 2 people working from home and streaming videos almost everyday always goes over their cap.
Best part is thanks to Adjit Pai they can also throttle your internet before you hit the cap. Thanks FCC
I’m so glad T-Mobile 5G covers my area now. Before that Cox had a monopoly and I was paying almost 200 a month. Now it’s 40 and faster download speeds. Ping times are similar… I’d recommend seeing if any wireless providers support home Internet near you
Same, except it was Verizon that came to my town. Also was paying close to $200/mo for 500 / 30 Mbps and a data cap. Now I pay the same as you and get 1400 / 80 with no data cap. No ping issues in Counter-Strike 2, either. 5G fixed wireless is way better than people make it out to be.
Of course, once more and more people realize what they’re missing out on and hop on the bandwagon, Verizon will eventually become just as shitty as the competition (and so will T-Mobile). Just ask anyone who lives in an area with a FiOS monopoly. Such is life.
Of course, but for now it’s a nice improvement. Hopefully something else will come along once these guys get as shitty as Cox is now. It’s nice that there’s an alternative/ competition at least. Which is required by law but somehow something I had yet to experience
17 hours… should have been at least $5.30!
- Apple
- All of the defence contractors
- Every telecom I’ve ever used apart from EE and Giffgaff
- YouTube
- Any website that tries to circumvent privacy rules with fuckery
- Governments like the UK that insist prohition is a better alternative to harm reduction but continue to profit from poisons like alcohol.
- Any company that makes devices with proprietary interfaces e.g. WiFi printers, BT routers, Apple in general, Tesla, battery power tool manufacturers.
- The list goes on…
Governments like the UK that insist prohition is a better alternative to harm reduction but continue to profit from poisons like alcohol.
How does one boycott the government? Would I cut up my ID and declare myself a sovereign citizen? As much as I agree with the sentiment, I don’t think it’s as easy as that haha
Committing tax evasion maybe lol
All telecom companies in the Philippines and Southeast Asia too. They are all enshittified as expected
Let’s face it, EE are just as twatty as the others.
Ee and giffgaff both suck ass
I won’t defend them but they didn’t suck my ass yet.
Chick-fil-A
Every auto maker lobbying against right to repair and every phone maker who remotely accesses people’s phones.
Sorry if this has already been mentioned in the 224 (so far) comments… but another bad guy worth hating is
Hewlett Packard.
Their
“Hey, you need to have our proprietary ink cartrige in your HP inkjet printer plus scanner to print AND to scan as well. The scanner won’t work when you are out of ink”
Is just plain fuckery.
