WTF is this?
The Short Version
The investor class is making billions while funding the machinery of authoritarianism. Your Netflix subscription, your Amazon Prime membership, your cloud storage — it all flows upward to billionaires and major investment firms who buy political influence and build the surveillance infrastructure an authoritarian state depends on. That feedback loop deepens inequality and puts our country at risk.
This is a boycott. We count every dollar withdrawn. We make the number impossible to ignore.
The Movement
This project was inspired by Scott Galloway and his Resist and Unsubscribe campaign.
“The most patriotic thing you can do right now is cancel your Amazon Prime membership.”— Scott Galloway
Why This Matters
A friend recently asked me why I’m fighting these specific companies. My answer is that our goal isn’t to defeat Google, Meta, or Amazon—it’s to wake up the people who own them. We are targeting the small circle of investors like Vanguard and BlackRock who bankroll a loop of creeping authoritarianism and federal control. We’re gamifying this boycott to move the markets just enough to let the shareholder class know we’re on to them. It’s about shaking up the boardroom and recognizing our collective power.
Does this actually work?
Yes. In September 2025, after Disney suspended a prominent late-night host under political pressure, a decentralized boycott saw Disney+ cancellation rates double in 30 days. U.S. churn spiked from 4% to 8%, costing Disney an estimated 3 million subscribers in a single month. The company reversed the suspension in just six days. You don't have to kill the giant; you just have to make it bleed.

Our Demand
Make a CEO-level commitment to oppose illegal government actions — and prove it: end influence spending, disclose lobbying, exit enforcement/surveillance work, and publish independent verification.
Big Tech + ICE
Amazon, Microsoft, Google, and Palantir have billions in contracts with ICE and CBP. Your subscriptions fund the servers that track immigrants, separate families, and enable deportation raids.
Billionaires in Government
Tech billionaires aren't just influencing politics — they're writing policy. When the richest people on Earth have direct access to the White House, your vote matters less than your wallet.
Your Money, Your Power
You can't outspend a billionaire. But you can stop giving them your money. Collectively, millions of cancelled subscriptions send a message that quarterly earnings reports can't ignore.
Social is the final boss
Leaving social platforms matters most — but it’s harder to quantify and verify. This phase is subscriptions with receipts. Next phase: social exits.
What We Don't Do
- We don't track you
- We don't want your email
- We don't sell anything
- We just count
Transparency
The counter is self-reported. These are declared protest dollars, not audited financial data. We have no way to verify that you actually cancelled anything—and we don't want one.
We use lightweight anti-spam measures (rate limiting, honeypots) to keep bots out, but we're not checking receipts. The number is a symbolic signal of collective intent, not a balance sheet.
How to use this number: Share it as a sign of momentum. Cite it as evidence of a movement. Don't treat it as a financial audit. It's a protest, not an accounting exercise.
Credits & Irony
This site was built in days, not months, thanks to AI coding tools. We’re sincerely grateful.
We’re not pretending there’s no conflict: the tools enabling this protest come from the same power structure we’re criticizing—billionaire-backed labs racing for dominance.
And the moral hazards are real. In this economy, AI will be used to boost profits, concentrate wealth, and erode workers’ power. The surveillance risks are chilling. Watch this space—it’s a fight for another day.
Purity isn’t the goal. We borrow power from the same system we’re trying to change.
