"'People are getting a sense that they’re ripped off, that they’re being taken advantage of and exploited as consumers,' said Aaron Vansintjan, co-author of 'The Future Is Degrowth: A Guide to a World Beyond Capitalism.' 'It is promising that people are responding to the current moment by showing their distrust of these corporations.'"The boycott has drawn wide–ranging media coverage, along with the attention of some celebrities.

WenReuse, Repair, Recycle‘Repair’ workshops are not just effective, they change the way people think about what they have and what they might buy. Having volunteered a day a month over 4 years I also understand the satisfactiongives. Not to mention making some things economically viable for those who don't have the ‘luxury' of dump and repurchase and encouraging manufacturers to reform.<a href="https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2025/mar/06/repair-shops-broken-devices-new-lease-of-life" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2025/mar/06/repair-shops-broken-devices-new-lease-of-life</a><a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/ReuseRepairRecycle" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#ReuseRepairRecycle</a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/Reuse" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Reuse</a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/Repair" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Repair</a> <a href="https://mastodon.scot/tags/Recycle" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Recycle</a>
