In Strength in Numbers, G. Elliott Morris noted that as measured by internet searches for “Cancel Disney+,” the boycott against Disney, the parent company of ABC, is now four times as large as any similar search of a boycott over the past five years
Funny you should mention that.
A little over a month ago, my wife and I got new phones with a Verizon promotional offer. With the phones came a new plan that included three months of free Disney, Hulu and ESPN+.
Saturday, we cancelled that part of the plan, so we won’t be billed for it when the promotional period ends in November.
A little thing. Microscopic even, in the grand scheme of things.
But we do what we can, and somewhere in the vast land of big data, the protest is registered, and in a country of 340 million (and in a world bigger still), those microscopic votes of no confidence begin to add up.
