    NUJ call for Yahoo Boycott

    The union representing journalists in the U.K. and Ireland called on its 40,000 members to boycott all Yahoo products and services to protest the Internet company's reported actions in China.

    The National Union of Journalists said it sent a letter on Friday to Dominique Vidal, Yahoo Europe's vice president, denouncing the company for allegedly providing information to Chinese authorities about journalists. The union also said it would stop using all Yahoo-operated services.

    Original story from ZD Net.

    They've got a point. But somehow I can't see Yahoo quaking in their shoes because the NUJ is boycotting them.
    Hopefully this will spread and hit their market share extremely hard.
    Please sign the petition to establish a national day of celebration in honour of the vision of the United Irishmen!
