Consumers are letting these corporatation buy’em out.
Consumers do not have the leverage they once had anymore. Last year, 70% of RAM went to AI. This year, it's likely even more and who knows how few crumbs they are leaving for us to lick up from the kitchen floor in 2027.
It's call a boycott.
It's physical, and requires folks get off couches.
Why would RAM manufacturers or large tech companies that have both stopped caring about consumers as customers be bothered by a boycott done by said consumers? Are you not seeing the problem here?
I am seeing that the term “boycott” means vastly different things to historians and the average emptor.
When I say «boycott,» what is the first that comes to your mind?
For me, it's this.
🔗
Boycotts are by definition non-violent. You can't just use an outdated definition or make up your own if you want people to understand what you're trying to communicate. Just say riot, uprising or revolt instead.
Yep, vastly different definitions.
“Revolt” here reads good.
Gonna get off your couch now?
Are you this abrasive in the real world as well or just online?
I’m sorry, did Samsung pay you lip service for them, or do believe corporations are friends?
