The Boycott For Palestine Chrome extension is a powerful tool for raising awareness and taking action against the ongoing Israeli apartheid. This extension goes beyond static lists and existing websites, offering a comprehensive database of brands and products that support Israeli apartheid, with a specific focus on high-growth startups, financial firms, and venture capitalists. Also, it automatically scans products on major websites (e.g. SodaStream products on Amazon) and blurs the offending items. Boycott For Palestine enables you to do something about the ongoing apartheid.
In every interaction in your life, we want you to be aware of who directly or indirectly supports the ongoing Israeli apartheid. Then, if you want to or must support them due to your circumstances, you can... but at least you are aware. By boycotting these brands and products, you can take a stand against the injustices suffered by Palestinians. While millions of Palestinians are displaced and murdered, the least you can do is stop using this apartheid country's products. Remember that everything in the world starts from a small seed -- by installing this extension, you take a small, but powerful step in supporting the rights of humans everywhere.
Lastly, remember that BDS lists are not enough. Boycotting large companies moves the needle, but not enough. Those who support this apartheid are everywhere, and we make you aware of them. Inch by inch, freedom will be achieved. History will never forget. Future generations will never forget the injustices suffered by Palestinians.
1. Automatically blurs all sites of public Israeli companies on the Tel Aviv and American stock exchanges
Consumers and businesses can now avoid any products from Israeli public companies.
2. Automatically blurs all sites of top private Israeli unicorn startups and over 1500 other prominent Israeli private companies
Boycott them where it hurts the most; rising companies who desperately need growth.
3. Automatically blurs top 300+ Israeli eCommerce sites
Why buy overpriced goods from websites growing off the backs of a rogue state?
4. Automatically blurs thousands of investment firms (either in Israel or investing in Israel)
Say goodbye to crappy Israeli hummus forever!
5. Automatically blurs all companies/brands who support Israel (all companies from BDS lists)
You can skip the coke and sodastream when kids in Gaza are starving and dying!
6. Automatically blurs all Israeli Domains
The world is watching every organization who is supporting the apartheid regime.
7. Automatically blurs sites with large texts of Hebrew
Supporting an ethnostate leads to conflation of the state and its religion and its language. How to avoid this? Don't create an ethnostate.
Note: all features can be turned off one-time or permanently on the particular site domain with one click similar to how AdBlock works.
Company/Startup Boycott
1. How often is this data or tool updated?
- All data will be updated on a monthly basis so that any new public companies, prominent startups or private companies, ecommerce sites, investment firms, and brands will always be added.
2. I am a site blurred by your tool. I would like to not be blurred. What can I do?
- Your site or company must put out a statement in favor of the right of the Palestinian people to self-determination. As Paul Graham and 172 other countries pointed out mostly recently in December 2023, everyone who is not inherently biased can clearly see the grave injustices suffered by Palestinians. Once you make a statement in favor of this vote, we will happily take you down after.
3. Is any of my data being shared or saved?
- No. All this extension does is blur sites based on if they fall under a set of logical rules (see features section above) -- your data is never saved nor does it leave your local computer or network. We store your ability to unblur certain sites in your browser cookies.
4. How can I help this project? I have ideas for other features or tools.
- Please help out with ongoing projects here.
5. Do you recommend any other apps?
Yes, check out some sites such as BuyReddit that pre-filter any Israeli companies or brands.
