Anyone feel like mapping out all the companies, how they're related, and boycotting them all in a Pressure Campaign?

It is profoundly sick and I've been dealing with it since they first incorporated it into their engines. It has a long history but I recall SEO changes immediately preceding the implementation and requirement of AI in their tools, then increasingly stringent requirements for users thereafter regarding the data they would take from them. Knowing that many people are probably boycotting google is primarily why I built my own Single Sign-On (SSO) for my product, so users would never have to share their data with Alpha/Google. My SSO is called AUSUM ID, I'm using it for all of my many in-development products. However I've run out of my own funds to continue trying to compete against large companies. I'm struggling to survive now, and fear the future of trying to compete with big companies.

I agree that there is a fraction that fall in that camp. I think the human emotional spectrum is very wide, and it's important to approach sensitive subjects with a more profound sense of humility than the person you're trying to win over-- staying true to yourself throughout the process. I believe the boltzmann curve on this would have the same fraction that falls into that camp (who would change their views in response to tie cuts) see an equal but opposite reflection on the other side of the curve where they'd equally cut you off as unworthy of discussing anything with simply because you cut ties over politics. So it really goes both ways, in my view of human emotions and disagreement discussion.

It's user-governed. I have no say in anything... it's literally a tool that I put over 10 years of conceptual design into. lol. (with receipts). This took a LOT of time to build, and the rich would never fund it. Anyway, particularly on governance -- the boycotts are democratic -- the users themselves guide everything from the goal to the victory. It was very challenging to build.

It's in my username. If interested, let's chat.

Oh, well I'm talking about actual numbers. There's a lack of numeric data surrounding what pressure companies actually face from public backlash. My product would solve that if anyone were interested in putting together real campaigns against companies on my product.

Of course I do! But even a dollar to someone with absolutely nothing going on can be really impactful. I'd know, I'm at the worst stage of my life after investing my blood, heart, sweat, soul into a world-changing tool that I don't know how to market. I don't even know why I'm here. But I'm enjoying the experience.

I think by cutting off contact/dialogue, you're really hurting someone who could benefit from your better views. You shouldn't ever remove your ability to provide charity by simple thought exchange.

Constructive dialogue can allow for new technology to succeed without stepping on too many toes. That's the important role social media plays in society-impacting inventions and plans.

It's hard to quantify the backlash against companies using online social media. That's why I created highly structured boycott social media app, so we can see how much people are costing these companies.
