Something Not to Boycott

Seth Godin sees consumers voting with their dollars, to get companies to act responsibly. I wish I could share his optimism, but if it isn’t happening now, it won’t in the future....

If there is anything the consumer can do, it is to fight attempts to stall change and innovation. The real enemy are not specific companies, but patents, boundless copyrights, and other trade barriers that try to forestall the inevitable.

So if you want to make a difference, take a stand against the forces who oppose progress. Everything else will sort itself out.
