At this point, what am I not boycotting? lol
I guess this is the abridged no-go list:
Late additions:
Same. Started avoiding them after the disaster and never had the need to go back. I drive electric car now.
You should add Exxon to that list for Valdez.
Yeah, true. Forgot about that one. Also, they knew about climate change for over 40 years and still spent millions of dollars promoting denialism and misinformation in the name of profits.

My list is pretty similar to yours, with major exceptions that I include all the giant multinational oil companies (i.e., BP, Chevron, ExxonMobil, Shell - I get gas from Arco). I also substitute Google in place of Apple. I avoid Amazon like the plague, unless there is absolutely nowhere else I can buy something. I also have all the US mega banks on my list. Kroger's grocery stores. Probably a few more things I can't think of right now.
really? I like BoA - the tellers are friendly and I've never really had any issues with extra fees. been with them for over 20 years now
