Im kinda doing the same. Cant say I always do. If im very hungry after a party and only the nearest gas station is open, i grab a snickers.
But what kind of active action are you talking about? Not using facebook seems like a legit boycott of it. Is it actively speaking about not using it and informing other people?
Sometimes I go shopping for groceries and see something I like, then I see it is Nestlé - I am actively boycotting it. Same with Amazon, I actively order in other shops and pay 10€ more just to not support Amazon.
On the other hand I do not buy olives, not because I boycott them - I just don't like the taste of olives. Same is with Facebook or Instagram, I do not feel a need for it, I just don't care for their products. Does that make sense?
btw. I fucking love olives, just tried to make a good example
Thanks!
