You can say that about any boycott anywhere, with about as much relevance in all situations - minimal. Any large organization will laugh at a small boycott by random people. But if Nokia pisses off enough people until they start to abandon Nokia products, Nokia will feel it. And, quiet frankly, Nokia could afford to laugh at customer loss a few years ago, maybe, but certainly not now. They can only take losses for so many years in a row.

Now, I agree with the first sentence about it being stupid to torture yourself for somebody else's stupidity, but I don't see how boycotting Nokia at this point is torturing yourself...

It makes sense for them to move closer to where they're actually still selling phones in quantity.

Dude GoDaddy is the largest domain name registrar it's bigger then then all his other competitors but when it lost an insignificant amount of domains due to the SOPA thing they pulled their support in like days. Flops Nokia is in no place to laugh at anyone
