We knew this was coming, but now the clock is running. -
If you don't want to see billionaires succeed, remember that their wealth is almost exclusively a function of the stock market, and STOP USING THEIR PRODUCTS.@Gustodon Not necessarily a specific product (well, for example I don't even consider to buy a tesla
) but I was thinking more about online sellers.
I always look for alternatives before to buy something (from food to electronics) and more and more in the end the most cheap and actually available place is the usual amazon.
But in the end boycotting somebody is really becoming impossible.
Brand changes, way out higher prices if not coming from the usual places .. as I said the choice is buy or not buy.
For the software I always try the open source way first, so far I have to say I avoided many proprietary SW, BUT again, for work is not matter of choices.
Customers/clients wants to use specific products (like AWS or Azure) and thus you are forced to buy stuff just to work on that.
Telling a customer no is not really a good strategy if you want to work.
Bottom line, also in SW not always there is a real choice.

Or, rephrasing, more and more people has less and less choices.
In the end the choice will be : buy - don't buy.
We can avoid to buy many things, but when the choice affect basic necessary things ... then what ?
