National Boycotting could get complicated

Here is a letter promoting gun control legislation signed by 145 companies. Good luck remembering all of them for boycott efforts. Maybe there is an app for that

Went through the whole list and was pleased to see that I'm NOT a customer of those companies or user of their products/services. I feel so clean!

P.S. DivCurlGrad72 beat you by 3 hours

I'm good, I don't do business with any of the large companies and I don't even recognize any of the smaller companies.

There are a lot of tech companies on that list and even some of the smaller ones are large in a sense. For example, JJ Abrams (yes, that JJ Abrams who has made a living portraying large scale destruction and violence) is Chairman and Co-CEO of Bad Robot. An excerpt for Wikipedia: "Under its Bad Robot Productions division, the company is responsible for the television series Alias, Lost, Fringe, Person of Interest, Revolution and Westworld alongside the feature-length films Cloverfield, Star Trek, Super 8, Star Trek Into Darkness, Mission: Impossible – Ghost Protocol, Mission: Impossible – Rogue Nation, Star Wars Episodes VII and IX, 10 Cloverfield Lane, Star Trek Beyond, The Cloverfield Paradox, Mission: Impossible – Fallout, and Overlord." This list represents such a cross section of companies in America that it almost becomes impossible to avoid. Even if you avoid them directly, a service you use or a business you frequent is bound to use one of them. The opposition is not clearly defined anymore. It is becoming your friends, your neighbors, your co-workers, and maybe even your loved ones. Ladies and gentlemen (and any other category I missed), I do not like where we are headed and fear for the future of our constitutional rights. There is a lot of momentum building and I'm not sure we can stop it.
