I will stop dealing with companies that screw me over in some way

I will never deal with Comcast/Xfinity for example.

Now boycotting because of things the companies do to other people? I'll make an effort if what they did really bothers me.

When Denny's was found to have pervasive racial discrimination policies discouraging black customers late at night in the 90s I went many years without patronizing them. When Exxon tried to evade responsibility for the Valdez spill until they were forced to I went quite a few years without buying gas there. Finally gave it up because they are so ubiquitous.

And I will never, ever use Mayflower to move if I ever need a mover.
