  More than one drove. Upper bound is infinite droves.

    A drove has at least 4 people in it so we can establish an upper bound of 2.4 billion droves.

      I think your upper bound is too many droves, the limit is total Disney Plus subscribers.

      Here is some potentially useful data: statista.com/…/disney-plus-number-of-subscribers-…

      To me it looks like their numbers may be trending down already so a boycott could be extra effective. If they have lots of customers already considering leaving then giving them an excuse like participating in a boycott in defense of free speech could help accelerate that trend and make a bigger impact.

        Well yes, it's not a very tight upper bound, but I was bringing it down from infinity. I'm glad the scientific process is working and we're refining this (in droves) over time.

      Given that each person can hold as many accounts as they like, the number of accounts that’ve closed is anywhere from 4 to (2.4billion-.25)*infinity (because I had only one account). I can see why they’re panicking

  I think we can speculate with a high degree of confidence that it won’t influence their profit growth projections.

    I wouldn’t be so sure about that, the Disney brand has taken a major hit here. I think it is still impossible to say what it is going to cost them but it will cost them, they certainly aren’t making more money out of this. It is not a situation that makes the line go up, people are absolutely pissed at Disney.

      The Disney brand has taken a huge hit because they fired Kimmel, a guy who’s rating were tanking? Lol

      Disney made a business decision, and Kimmel approves of them doing that quickly and strongly.

        Yes, they have. Being seen to capitulate on free speech has pissed a lot of people off. His ratings are irrelevant, people who hate Kimmel are pissed because it’s not about him specifically.

        Your image with the Kimmel quote is a different situation. Businesses are free to make business decisions, that is exactly the problem here. They were not free, and as Trump has reiterated, there’s now a new censorship regime enforced by the FCC which is going to continue interfering in these businesses to silence critics.
