If there was even a chance a boycott would be feasible, they wouldn’t be doing what they’re doing. The only way to force change is to force it. Voting with your wallet is bullshit and won’t work against an oligopoly.
One company caving about one thing doesn’t cancel out the overall trend of enshittification and subscription bullshit. Things are getting worse on the whole because voting with our wallets just doesn’t work well enough to beat back all the corporations trying to take advantage of us.

I don’t disagree with you. But until we can get some sort of legislation, our only option is to not give those companies any money.
