I want mega corps to fail, not spark a great depression.

How about an anti-Honey plug in that reminds you not to order when you’re trying to check out.

Or use it as a product search engine, then go to the supplier or an alternate online store to buy the one you want. I don't have it on my phone but do go to it in browser occasionally for that.

You can't have change without sacrifice.

Way ahead. I deleted my Amazon

Yeah that's basically all I used it for over the last year anyway. Any product on Amazon that isn't junk probably has it's own site in my experience

I week long boycott will do nothing. If that is the most you are prepared to inconvenience yourself to send a message, then just give up now.

Yeah, having like <5% of people put off buying stuff for a week isn't going to do that.
Unfortunately at this point only something fairly world-changing is going to really do much. And it's definitely going to get much worse before it gets better. Prepare for it.

Was it not in a 401k or something?
-
Agreed. Better to make it a month or two. This gives you time to find replacement companies and then hopefully never return to Amazon.

Also tell them why you're boycotting them. That's an important step.
