    I actually think this might be a violation of the developer agreement for the play store. You should report the app and see what happens.

    The ideal solution would be to just not buy Starbucks.

      Voting with your feet and money is one of the first thing we can do as consumers since voting as a citizen is largely a futile excerise.

          Correct, most of our spending is going to duopolies, landlords and gas…

          Not much choice there but we can still kinda do it with the discretionary spending. I am sure that will be eroded too within our life times.

      I’m not usually big on boycotts since corporations are entrenched enough that they need gov’t intervention to do anything meaningful but the totality of the circumstances and the likelihood of a better local coffee shop in your area would tell me to skip the awful Starbucks setup.

        If the best way to patronize them is inconvenient I would hardly call it a boycott. I’d call that basic capitalism.
