(HELP FORWARD) Hello Telelings! I've created a dedicated channel to monitor legal applications currently under boycott. Come join @BoycottApplications to stay informed and make more conscious choices. Every install is a choice, so let's make the right one.

Hello everyone, hope you guys are having a productive day. I created this channel as a place for us to learn together and re-check what applications we use everyday

As we know, many legal applications are actually on the boycott list karena alasan etis maupun dukungan terhadap isu-isu kemanusiaan tertentu. This channel also created by specifically to provide transparency and updates tentang aplikasi mana aja yang sebaiknya kita hindari atau cari alternatifnya. To be more conscious about where our support goes, let's be more selective in choosing the digital tools we use

Let's start discussing about the dark side of our daily apps yang mungkin selama ini kita pake. It's time to dig deeper and see which legal apps are actually on the boycott list for ethical reasons. Here I will dissect the reasons behind the movement so that we understand why this step was taken. Our digital habits matter and choosing to stop using certain platforms is a real form of our concern

Okay after the list I shared before, mungkin banyak dari kalian yang bertanya-tanya "kenapa aplikasi sebesar itu masuk daftar boikot?" Atau "apa hubungannya aplikasi di handphone kita dengan isu kemanusiaan?" Nah setelah ini aku akan bahas apa alasan fundamental di balik pemboikotan layanan digital ini

1. Infrastructure & Military Support (The Tech Giants)

Actually there are many giant technology companies here like google and amazon that are involved in large contracts to provide cloud computing and Artificial Intelligence (AI) infrastructure. Bahkan teknologi ini sering disalahgunakan untuk sistem pengawasan, pemetaan wilayah sengketa sampe efisiensi operasional militer di zona konflik. Data dan biaya berlangganan kalian secara ga langsung biayain kontrak-kontrak tersebut

2. Economic Affiliation & Investment

Several entertainment and music platforms have directors or CEO's who openly divert company profits to the defense industry or military technology. Saat kita membayar biaya langganan bulanan, maka sebagian dari uang itu otomatis masuk ke kantong investor yang mendukung penindasan

3. Origin & Taxation

Some apps like wix or fiverr were born and headquartered in the countries we are boycotting. Artinya setiap transaksi di sana will be subject to taxes that go directly into the state treasury to fund military aggression
