  • Sorry, what does this mean?

    Don't link to Observer or Guardian articles, only link to archive copies, or dont click on any Observer/Guardian links?

    I'm assuming all of the above.

    • A digital picket line would apply to journalists working from home, not consumers. During the Miner's Strike, I don't remember anyone stopped using coal in solidarity.

      That said, I have no objections to a boycott.

      • I think the main difference between miners strikes and this is that if you used coal for heating/cooking you didn't have a lot of alternative options other than just not heating your home.

        Not really a viable option.

        Still, I was just more curious whether this was a posting for awareness that it was happening or if "don't cross the picket line" was shared for solidarity.

      • Should we pin this post?

    • Your assumption is correct!
