Objective
End corporate complicity in deportation
Hold companies accountable that profit from immigration enforcement and detention.
AT&T
AT&T is one of the largest telecommunications companies in the United States, providing wireless, broadband, and media services to over 200 million customers.
Why this is a target
AT&T holds over $680 million in contracts with the Department of Homeland Security, providing communications infrastructure to ICE and Customs and Border Protection. A 10-year, $146 million DHS contract signed in March 2024 provides emergency telecommunications and was expanded to 5G networks in August 2024. ICE sole-sourced an additional $11 million contract to AT&T for data analytics and support services. These systems enable access to photographs, real-time audio and video feeds, and databases used in identification and apprehension operations.

Pledges you can make
Call your congressperson and demand oversight of DHS telecom contracts. Congressional pressure is one of the few levers on government procurement.
Port your number away from AT&T. Every lost subscriber weakens the business case for these government contracts.
Objective
Stop illegal ICE deportations
Microsoft
Microsoft is a global technology company providing cloud services (Azure), productivity software (Office 365), and consumer devices (Xbox, Surface) to hundreds of millions of users.
Why this is a target
Microsoft has strong consumer leverage — Office 365, Xbox, Surface, and Windows are all consumer products consumers can walk away from or choose alternatives. The broken commitment narrative is powerful: Microsoft CEO Satya Nadella expressed sympathy for DACA recipients while maintaining ICE contracts.

Pledges you can make
Bing is a significant Microsoft revenue stream through advertising. Switching to DuckDuckGo, Brave Search, or Google reduces Microsoft's ad revenue and signals disengagement.
Edge is tied to Microsoft's advertising and data ecosystem. Switching to Firefox or another browser removes you from Microsoft's browser-based tracking and ad targeting.
LinkedIn is owned by Microsoft and generates substantial revenue through premium subscriptions and advertising. Deactivating your account reduces Microsoft's data assets and ad reach.
Microsoft 365 is one of Microsoft's largest consumer subscription products. Cancelling and switching to LibreOffice, Google Workspace, or Apple iWork directly cuts recurring revenue.
Game Pass is a growing and strategically important subscription for Microsoft's gaming division. Cancelling reduces recurring revenue in a sector Microsoft is actively expanding.
Windows licensing fees and the PC hardware ecosystem are foundational to Microsoft's consumer revenue. Choosing macOS or a Linux-based device on your next purchase delivers a lasting, high-impact economic signal.

End deportation profiteering
Microsoft
Microsoft is a global technology company providing cloud services (Azure), productivity software (Office 365), and consumer devices (Xbox, Surface) to hundreds of millions of users.
Why this is a target
Microsoft has enormous consumer-facing exposure through Xbox, Office 365, LinkedIn, and Windows. Consumers, students, and businesses can choose alternatives. Microsoft employees have repeatedly protested ICE contracts internally, creating an internal accountability angle. Microsoft's 2018 marketing of AI tools to ICE with language about 'accelerating border security' is a documented harm.

Pledges you can make
Bing is a significant Microsoft revenue driver through search advertising. Switching to DuckDuckGo, Brave Search, or Google reduces Microsoft's ad revenue and data collection.
Edge is Microsoft's primary browser and a key vehicle for Bing search traffic and MSN news ad revenue. Replacing it with Firefox or Brave directly reduces Microsoft's consumer data and ad earnings.
Microsoft 365 subscriptions represent a major consumer revenue stream. Switching to free alternatives like LibreOffice or Google Docs removes recurring subscription income from Microsoft.
Xbox Game Pass is one of Microsoft's fastest-growing consumer subscription services. Cancelling and switching to competing platforms like PlayStation Plus or Steam directly impacts this revenue line.
OneDrive paid storage tiers generate recurring consumer subscription revenue for Microsoft. Moving files to Proton Drive, Dropbox, or another provider withdraws that recurring spend.
Windows licensing and associated hardware sales represent Microsoft's largest consumer revenue segment. Choosing a Mac or a Linux-based device for your next purchase is the single highest-impact consumer economic action against Microsoft.
