For example, how does one boycott the manufacturer of aluminum and titanium cast or milled parts? Used in almost all cars and airplanes, etc.

I support the effort, but most of the companies listed are large multinational conglomerates that make materials used in the manufacturing of products around the world.

Dell, otoh, no problem. We can boycott Dell.

And PepsiCo.

I already boycott Koch industries based products.
