Boycotting != blackmailing. It's perfectly within an advertiser's rights, even if you or I disagree. Vote with your wallet, as they say.

One thing to note is that not only is it within an advertiser's rights, it's probably also the better business decision.

If you can do a marketing campaign on say FaceBook where your ads will be targeted to your narrow market or a campaign on Twitter where your ads will be haphazardly place; which would you do?

It's Elons own fault. If he wanted Twitter to be able to compete with its competitors he probably shouldn't've fired the engineering team.
