the biggest US exports are its software products. Until the time we have a way to avoid Google, Reddit, Meta, Microsoft, ChatGPT etc, we aren’t boycotting anything meaningful.
“Don’t let perfect be the enemy of good”. With changing our grocery and household purchases, cancelling Amazon and Netflix, and looking for alternatives to U.S. products, we are all doing the best we can, and I do believe it will make a difference.
Have already replaced basically all US software products for personal use. Unfortunately work related stuff can’t be boycotted yet, but hopefully we can see an improvement there too ASAP. Hardware still from Apple, but will once it becomes time to replace it I will definitely switch to a HMD phone.
I’m on a now almost full boycott personally but my new Danish employer provides their employees with the newest iPhone (only phone you can choose… I tried to get another), American laptops, and uses Microsoft for everything including cloud. It’s the companies that need to start thinking and adapting. I aaked them “you know that all of our data is held by Trump-led USA, right?” And they just say “yea, but it is what it is”.
