Introduction
Introduction
Boycotts have long been a form of expression and activism. By denying businesses, organizations, or even entire countries of revenue by refusing to engage with them. This can be temporary - until they change their practices, or life-long depending on the situation. When enough people engage in a boycott together, these institutions have a history of caving in, and making changes.

Famous examples include the Montgomery Bus Boycott, sparked by Rosa Parks, which lasted for 13 months, and helped the black community fight back against racist rules.

Buycott This app allows you to choose specific causes to support. When you scan products, the app will give you a list of pros and cons so that you can pic according to your values, and in situations with limited choices, you can more easily "pick the lesser evil" with a reasonable idea of what each company stands for or fights against. Be careful not to select every single campaign available - for example there is a pro-Coch and anti-Coch Industry campaigns.

The Office of Antiboycott Compliance (OAC) "within BIS is charged with administering and enforcing the Anti-Boycott Act of 2018, Part II of the Export Control Reform Act of 2018 (ECRA), and the antiboycott provisions set forth in Part 760 of the Export Administration Regulations, 15 CFR parts 730-774 (EAR). These authorities discourage, and in some circumstances, prohibit U.S. companies from taking certain actions in furtherance or support of a boycott maintained by a foreign country against a country friendly to the United States (unsanctioned foreign boycott). U.S. companies must report to OAC their receipt of certain boycott-related requests for information designed to verify compliance with an unsanctioned foreign boycott. Prohibited activities include, inter alia, agreements by U.S. companies to refuse to do business with a boycotted country or with blacklisted persons for boycott-related reasons, furnishing information about any person’s business relationships with a boycotted country or with blacklisted persons, and implementation (by U.S. banking entities) of letters of credit that include prohibited boycott-related terms or conditions."
