The alternatives to Intel/AMD/Nvidia, Visa/Mastercard/American Express/Discover and IOS/Android need to be more developed.
And it's still owned by Google for over a decade. Large companies have offices all over the place

Boycott US

Overview:
The community dedicated to boycotting the US until they stop fascism, restore full democracy and start following international law.
Americans have a moral obligation to resist Donald Trump and project 2025 at every turn.
America is a flawed democracy currently being ruled by oligarchs. Stop the backslide! Dont let America become the next Hungary.
America needs to challenge the court rulings of citizens united v. fec and shelby county v. holder, protect the media, implement independent district drawing, and the single transferable vote so they don't end up having people stay home in life-changing elections because they cannot vote for their favourite candidate.

Doesn’t change the fact that my original statement is still accurate.
Actually it does. When a company gets bought. It's no longer in existence. Trust me, I know I work for startups and it sucks sometimes but the exit money that would be part of the one point. Whatever billion that you get paid is pretty awesome
Eh, there are a lot of people here who don't use most or any of those services as it is. And there are far more "American Tech" products you all use out there that you're probably unaware of, and many things you think ARE American tech are actually Chinese or other country's tech, so I don't know why not just frame it as not giving money to tech companies broadly and just shutting off social media like you should anyway.
This framing leaves you open to just move your money from one branch of the same oligarchy to another while thinking you're making a difference.
