What brands should we NOT boycott? (lemm.ee)

I get the boycotts for Target, Walmart, and Amazon for rolling back their DEI programs and bowing to Trump. What companies are treating employees fair or standing up for human decency? Seems like Costco gets brought up?

Most things I need I can get from my local grocery store which seems pretty non evil but where do you go if you need like a new keyboard?

based solely on what you've found (and not doing my own homework): it seems like they're going the adblock plus route where they're good to use until they get a critical enough mass of users to start selling their data and the we'll have to switch to the ublock origin like alternative.

    Yes this sounds right and it also makes sense.

    i think i'm going to start using more than one at a time as a cross comparison and investigate the dissenter.

    Not a bad idea but keep in mind you'll also potentially be adding yourself to lists. i assume i just ended up in a few databases i'd rather not be in by doing this snooping alone. Hard to tell the sheep from the wolves. I'm not an american though and my country isn't currently on "hardcore mode" political setting. Stay safe, friend.
