Comment on Twitter/X CEO Linda Yaccarino Files Antitrust Suit Against Advertising Groups Over "Systemic Illegal Boycott"

“Illegal boycott” what a fantastic concept! What’s next, Starbucks suing everyone who doesn’t buy at least one overpriced frappucino per day for “illegal boycott”? Am I allowed to not buy McDonald’s burgers because I don’t like them, or is that an “illegal boycott” too? The possibilities are endless!

It actually does not apply to mass movements of citizens, but rather, to movements of businesses:

An illegal boycott occurs when12: Two or more companies agree not to engage in business with another individual or company. Competitors work together to refuse to do business with targeted individuals or businesses. Such agreements may violate antitrust laws, especially if the group of competitors has market power.
