There have been a number of media journalists who have supported a boycott of Apple products and there have been just as many who have not supported a boycott.

Here is a message to those who do not support a boycott:  The mere mention of a boycott of Wall Street’s darling has scared the living daylights out of anyone who is making money off of Apple.  Supposedly Foxconn is worried about a boycott of Apple products as well.  The fear of a boycott is causing movement; imagine what a boycott can do.

Boycotting Apple products will do the one thing that boycotting another manufacturer of consumer goods will not do: Bring Attention.  Bad people hate being noticed and they hate it even more when you are watching closely.  Close attention forces action.

Remember, Wall Street calls Apple “the world’s most respected company”.  This reputation has to account for something.

As for Apple being offended by remarks like mine:  “Tough.  You got the money to make the Chinese listen so make them listen and act”.
