barcode + embargo list

[vernes]

I was wondering if there is an app that allows me to scan a barcode and compare it to a list of companies that I wish to blacklist for actions to which I do not agree.

But I'm sure there are many MANY more reasons to blacklist other companies.

Since I'm always carrying my android on me, it will be easy to scan any product I wish to buy and see a little reminder about why I have chosen to blacklist the products of a certain company. Perhaps even link to the article.

Yeah, I read that too. I can see quite a demand for such an app. I would eagerly install and use it.
I expect, though, that that blacklist will grow a hundred-fold, if not a thousand-fold, if Julian keeps up his releases and other whistleblowers come out of hiding.
All the more reason for an app of course!

It's high time we voted with our feet and our cheque books. That will hit 'm where it hurts most: their profits, their quarterly results, their stock performance, their overall capitalization/stock value, and their dividends.
