Amazon Prime- gone. Peacock- gone. Fox One- gone. Lowe’s and Home Depot- dead to me. Next up: ditching Xfinity/Comcast for a local internet provider. Being patriotic while giving the middle finger to these bastards, AND saving money while doing it feels awfully good.

Need a good suggestion to replacing AT&T. Feel like all telecom companies are comprimised in some way. The smaller companies don't make it affordable to switch; ie I'd have to pay off my iphone (still owe over $500 for it) Worried I will pay it off only to sign up for a plan that won't be worth it.

Thank you for posting list but I have questions: Lowe's not Home Depot? (I'm guessing Ace Hardware is the better option) If you NEED to ship ... is one worse "FedEx or UPS" because USPS is no longer a viable option (Thanks DeJoy) Same question, "AT&T or Comcast"? Living in an internet duoapoly

Home Depot is on Scott's Trump pac support boycott list.. Lowe's is on the ice list specifically because of the surveillance camera mobile units they have set up in every one of their parking lots and is providing ice access to the feeds

I was thinking the same thing.

Thanks, I think we can find ways to avoid patronizing them. However we might think about impact (or not, more realistically) the BDS movement has had on achieving objectives in Israel. Perhaps reputational damage from naming and shaming is more impactful than buying my paint at the Depot instead?

have you eliminated all of these from your investment portfolio?

Missing home depot. Flocking lots.

ship with DHL or Maersk. Or use the USPS

Cancelled amazon and netflix so far.

Anyone holding shares to any of these companies should sell them. One can always buy them back at a cheaper price, once they all hit rock bottom and they learn their lessons! We have the power, NOT them.

Not my AT&T😮

Not Home Depot?

Question, why isn’t Home Depot on the list with Lowe’s? They are using the same license plate reading technology aren’t they?

Heard you on CNN today with Dana Bash. Excellent interview and I agree 100%.

Hey, I own stock in two of those! Time to get the sell orders rolling..

Helpful. Until you listed these I didn’t realize I can subscribe from a few here.

I have cancelled 3 subscriptions. 👍

that's what I said. 😥

Is not verizon on this list?

Boycott!

Bottom line: As a marketing prof I think you'll understand reducing barriers to conversion by listing viable alternatives right on the website will increase your numbers and have sustained impact by changing peoples habits not just going without streaming for a few weeks then resubscribing in March

Scott, wouldn't the best strategy be to target one single company so as to focus the effort and it's impact and use them as an example scalp to hold up for all the others to notice?

We need to listen to Scott.

I appreciate your active economic boycott…power to the people 💪🏼

This is great. I've already done some of it BUT: 1. Why are you on any Zucky platforms at all? 2. I sure would like to be able to generate a one or two page PDF from the website to share with friends.

Lowe"s?? Damn it.

I appreciate this list Scott. Good to know, sir. I will respond accordingly.

Hey there’s a great mobile company called. Creedomobile.com that actually prides itself on donating to great nonprofits every month. Check them out! I’m changing as soon as I can!!

Would add Apple to that. @iceblock.app is still blocked on their App Store.

I'm sitting here staring at this list. We own a small shipping store and our livelihood is linked to FedEx and UPS. Makes me sick.

TY @profgalloway.com. So happy I just discovered you here for really great articulation of really great pragmatic solutions for improving human society. (I wonder if you have time or help to add alt text to graphics posts.)

Boycott them

And they trying to drive the United States Post Office into the ground where they can privatize it🤦‍♀️

Love the energy, but give me a single example of a local, small business that can replace AT&T, FedEx and UPS?? Boycotts are great, but without a government willing to break up these shadow monopolies it’s just yelling into the void. The average US consumer has zero choice but to use most of these

A sure bet is everyone one of these CEO’s are Trump donors. This is where unchecked capitalism has led us; anywhere to make a buck.

I imagine it would be somewhat different for each example. Such as my hometown of Arlington’s Marriott Corporation allowing ICE to stay in their hotels. And perhaps offering group discounts…

Damn. Have to find fiber alternative.
