If this post reaches your dash after Jan 1st- YOU'RE NOT LATE to the party!!!
It's never too late to practice selective consumerism, and when companies try to pull bullshit it's up to us to say we won't stand for it by not continuing to use their product until they roll back the change. If we don't push back that's seen as consent, and more sites will follow in YouTube's (and Spotify's) footsteps.
And if this post reaches you before Jan 1st- GREAT! Please reblog (or even repost this on other socials- no need to credit!) to help get the word out as quick and as far as possible!
And if you have more questions on the hows and why's they're under the cut:
For those unaware, people started boycotting Youtube and Spotify earlier this year because of internet privacy and data safety concerns after they started implementing the ID age verification, as well to push back at this push towards mass surveillance poorly veiled as "we need to protect the kids!"
However, the first attempt made the mistake of giving a three day deadline - which resulted in poor turnout and high drop off.
We won't make that same mistake again. We'll "start" the boycott on Jan 1st, but keep pushing out the word even after it's started because it's never too late to join. (Yes, there have been those of us already boycotting for a minute now- but having looked around it seems like a relatively sparse group with little attention. Only reason we're calling for this "start date" is to hopefully get A LOT more people on the wagon)
No deadline. We're going to keep going until they roll the policy back, checking in at each financial quarter (every 3 months) to see how well they're listening. (Got this idea from the Kelloggs boycott)
I recommend also making your own posts and memes to spread the word. We need to make more noise.
Boycotts work if done effectively. This isn't just about YouTube, or Spotify. This is about precedent. If we don't push back that's seen as consent, and more sites will follow in YouTube/Spotify's footsteps.
Remember that we're boycotting YouTube/Spotify- NOT the creators on those platforms.
Your favorite creator is bound to have another way to support them, and I suggest you find out what that is. (i.e: do they have Patreon/Kofi? Something else? A different platform perhaps?)
This way they're not caught in the crossfire and can't be used as leverage to guilt you into abandoning the boycott. ("Oh a company wouldn't do that-" YES they would!)

This is the single best video of a loon I've ever seen. Do you people realize how rare it is to see them that close? How rare it is to see them in that shallow of water? Incredible catch.

My wife pointed out to me the other day that apparently most people were literally only taught how to say Sorry and not how to Apologize or even that they are different things so here.
If all you ever do is step 1, not only did you not apologize, but people will rightfully stop believing you and start getting pissed or hurt.

by the way. it never is too late to decide you want to be happy. the woman who helped me get hormones didnt start hers until she was 70, and i met her at 73, beautiful and smiling - and told me that the last three years of her life had been her favorite. your favorites might be ahead of you too. why not hang around and find out?

seeing this post get a little traction and in fear of being misunderstood: this is about allowing yourself to see the irony in your own situation and a short reminder of your own agency. i know its hard but you cant wallow in being a victim of your symptoms by enabling your triggers forever (purposefully doing things you hate & hanging around online environments that just make you feel like shit). quit torturing yourself and go do something fun or talk to a friend
