How do you get help unsubscribing and finding alternatives?
Do you even know how much you are spending and the meaning of the different labels for your level of subscription tiers?
Scott Galloway’s “Resist and Unsubscribe” Campaign Summary
Scott Galloway advocates unsubscribing from major tech platforms to protest corporate support of controversial policies, particularly ICE. His strategy focuses on inflicting maximum damage with minimal personal sacrifice by targeting big tech companies that trade at high revenue multiples, making subscription cancellations 40 times more impactful than traditional boycotts.
He emphasizes that people often don’t realize how much they’re spending on auto-renewing subscriptions. By unsubscribing, consumers can save significant money while sending a powerful market signal. Galloway himself cancelled Uber (saving $34,000 annually), AT&T, and multiple streaming services, discovering he had duplicate subscriptions. He encourages switching to alternatives rather than going without services entirely, making the protest sustainable without major lifestyle disruption.
