I'm currently working on contacting "higher up" in that company to get them removed completely (or at least have no more orders placed). --- End quote --- I'm concerned here. Boycotting is one thing, even creating a boycott web site listing factual information is acceptable. Without *complete details* of what "got my local CostCo to remove"... means, I think the above statement implies a line has been crossed and vigilante actions such as this are NO BETTER than what DF was doing to "competetors". Someone's active "working on contacting 'higher up' ... to get them removed" implies UNLAWFUL RESTRAINT OF TRADE. Exactly what DF was attempting to do himself. Two wrongs DO NOT make a right. Boycott fine. Comments and actions eluded to by similar comments to the above, I believe legally, cross the line from an individual consumers freedom of choice and illegal trade disruption. Fight fair... don't fight his way or you may just find yourself thrown into a lawsuit yourself, and further disruption to your gaming platform through legal issues. --- End quote --- If Walmart was selling something you didn't think they should be selling say "Home Abortion Kits". Would you boycot Walmart, or talk to them to try to get them to stop selling them. Personally I would try to get them to stop selling them, and if they refused then I would boycot Walmart. Sweet I totally just compared ultracade cabnets to home abortion kits. |
