In the internet age it is easier to learn more
about companies from which we buy
products, and a consumer often – but not
always – has more choices about which
companies to patronize. If the head of a
company has political, economic, or social
views which you learn about and find
problematic or distasteful, is it ethical to
boycott publicly or privately while knowing
that lower-level employees, who may not
share those views and may not have other
employment options in that area, will also
be negatively impacted?
