I’m Going to Boycott the Olympics
I am going to ignore the Olympics, with one small exception. I am going to try to find out who the major sponsors are so I can try to Boycott them too…
Human Rights Watch has a list of companies that they were pressuring ever since 2001 when Beijing was awarded the games. General Motors and Xerox, Heineken NV from the Netherlands, Fuji Photo Film from Japan, Australia’s Telstra, Coca Cola, Schlumberger/Sema, John Hancock, Kodak, McDonald’s, Panasonic, Samsung, TimeWarner, and Visa. I don’t think I can get away with Boycotting Visa. The rest should be easy.
Edit: It looks like quite a few big sponsors did opt out of this Olympic cycle. GM is the most notable.
