Whether Dorian is Satoshi or not, this man's privacy was violated.

Please join me in boycotting the businesses that fund this behavior by advertising with Newsweek.  I will refuse to do business with any company that advertises with Newsweek until Newsweek has apologized and compensated Dorian for this disgusting invasion of his privacy and potentially putting him in danger.

Here is the list of companies that I've personally observed advertising on newsweek.com since this story broke:

Acura
Akamai
APC
AT&T
BottleLessDirect
Capital One
Carnival Cruises
ChoiceHotels.com
Cointerra (Yes, that's correct, Cointerra)
Dell
DirectBuy
The Economist
Full Sail University
GE Capital Retail Bank
Kaplan University
Logianalytics.com
Mazda
McDonald's
Microsoft
Nissan
Rackspace
Scion
Straight Talk Wireless
T-Mobile
Totalrewards.com
Toyota
Tracfone Wireless
UC Davis
Verizon
Volkswagen
Volvo

Also, feel free to let us know in this thread if you see any other companies advertising with them.

Edit: I'll be updating this list occasionally to add more advertisers that I've personally observed.

You read Newsweak?  Isn't that your parent's or grandparent's magazine?

Not routinely, but I did read the article on Dorian Nakamoto.  AFAIK, my parents and grandparents don't read / never read it routinely either.

Really?
I for one would not like the whereabouts of my house known.

I agree, Newsweek showed they are very irresponsable.  Shame on them.  Boycott them, great idea.

Maybe Newsweek is trying to save themselves from dying?  Grotesque way of doing so however.  Even if it WERE to be the "real Satoshi".

Watch out, your house is already visible from the side-walk and most likely the road that runs by it.
Your house is already on google maps and any other geo-surveillance site, too.

The big brother is already watching you.

ugh, and I was gonna eat at mcdonalds tonight :(

the newsweek, wanted to find the most biggest story in the world to kick start their newspaper, back into print.

... first story they print, leaves their reputation in pieces. no physical evidence, just opinions and hearsay from a reporter.

i would truly love to hear a soundbyte or a video recording of the quotes that leah says he said.

... oh wait there is none. just her word as a journalist with a history of lying

Done! And i don't even have to do anything. :D

Boycott Newsweek?

But i sorta do that already anyway.

Wait ... people still read this rag mag?

It's the advertisers that I'm boycotting.  I'll change the title of the OP from "Boycott Newsweek" to "Boycott Newsweek's Advertisers".

How stupid......

lol..boycott the advertisers? 

thats going a step too far and would never gain traction.
lets just boycott newsweek.

Someone doesn't understand capitalism...

Their magazine has been out of print for over a year, so I doubt too many people subscribe to their service.  I think most people get their news online for "free" and that most of that "free" news is funded with advertising.

I understand it just fine.  But  serious bitcoin community is small and people that are mad about Dorian is even smaller.  And people that are willing to actually boycott for this , smaller still... You're gonna ask them not to do business with 50 companies ? Ok...not gonna debate. 

Yes, I utterly agree with this post. It's like Russia are not allowed invade Ukraine, Newsweek couldn't have disturb the privacy of Dorian or Satoshi

50 companies out of 500,000+?

Doesn't strike me as impossible, friend.

I'll buy some print issues of Newsweek. Maybe they go on ebay for $100+ in 5 years or so. ;D
