The way marketing professor Scott Galloway puts it, the primary way to get President Donald J. Trump<\/a>‘s attention is by influencing the market. <\/p>\n

Don’t like Trump’s deployment of immigration authorities to Minneapolis or the killings of Americans observing the agents’<\/a> actions? Find a way to change the economic calculus for Trump, Galloway says. <\/p>\n

That’s why Galloway, the popular podcast host and author, recently launched a month-long economic strike campaign called Resist and Unsubscribe<\/a>. The initiative invites people to cancel tech subscriptions and services they may enjoy using for work, convenience, and entertainment. <\/p>\n

He says the campaign has reached nearly a million people via its website and related content has been viewed more than 18 million times on social media. <\/p>\n

The list of services Galloway says to consider forgoing includes Netflix<\/a>, Amazon<\/a>, Apple<\/a>, Uber<\/a>, and X<\/a>. Galloway has identified these and other tech companies “as having outsized influence over the national economy and our president.” <\/p>\n

Amazon, for example, spent tens of millions of dollars making and promoting Melania<\/em>, a documentary about First Lady Melania Trump, a move that skeptics of the deal and film have likened to a “bribe<\/a>” and “propaganda<\/a>.” Amazon has said<\/a> it made the movie because they believed customers would “love” it. <\/p>\n
