Products and services that rely on exploitation, and those that come from countries involved in human rights violations (Israel, China, USA, Russia, Saudi to name a few). You bet your ass I buy almost nothing XD, just local food and used clothes from private individuals, sometimes thrift stores if they are local and don't violate the first rule.

A lot of stuff. All streaming services. I even boycott entire us states, at least where applicable.
I don't really consider them boycotts because they are indefinite and I don't have any demands or don't see how they could change that would make me receptive to them.
Cars. I'll personally ride along or carpool with someone but I don't want to add another car to the world and to the road. Even if we switched over to all electric cars, they still require lots of resources to build and maintain and put a lot of demand on infrastructure and urban design.
Animal products. I am against all animal products and treating animal as commodity. We've enslaved animals all the way down to the biological level, it's unethical.
In and Out for banning mask usage at their stores in CA.
Keep in mind I live in California so it's kind of everywhere. And tasty. And cheap.
But it aint right, let your employees wear a mask of they need to or want to.
Oh chik fil a too but that's been going on for like... over ten years? I almost forgot they existed, with their overcooked chicken.
Israel and any company operating out of the occupied Palestinian lands that is Israeli operated.
Apartheid states that oppress people's in another land and treat them like prisoners in an open air prison don't get my money.
