Dropbox facing boycotts after naming Condolezza Rice to Board of Directors

[SPC]

More Republican whining about the free market...

Agreeing with the right of people to blacklist others based on ideology does not imply support for the practice.

Who would boycott Dropbox over this?  That's silly.  They provide a useful service and Condi Rice isn't really relevant to what they do as a member of the board.

Look, it's one thing that's she's a crazy lying warmonger. But the real problem is that she supports warrantless wiretaps, which means no privacy for the data you upload to Dropbox.

Being Republican is illegal, you know.

Boycotts aren't illegal, you know. The disastrous tenure at the state department (thousands of people dead) is why people have an issue with her, it's not about her being a Republican.

And yet many people involved in the boycot no doubt love LBJ, with the blood of millions on his hands.

...no one was complaining. Your definition of the "free market" is perverse.

Can't teach an old dog new tricks.

Law enforcement can currently obtain the contents of your Dropbox with just a subpoena. No warrant is required, which means there's no privacy for the data you upload to Dropbox, period.

And we already know the NSA backdoored Dropbox via Snowden, so ...

Well ... unlike Condi, LBJ has some pretty major redeeming qualities, and most liberals don't really "love" him anyway.

What? This whole thread is Republicans whining about people organizing on their own and forcing social change without the government stepping in. AKA, what Republicans normally advocate when it's in their favor.
