Do you think it would be possible (and how could we get it done?) to unite millions of people who collectively agree to target an individual company for a short time unless the company meets our demands? For example, for the month of March we all pledge to not purchase anything from Apple unless Apple does XYZ... Either they do it, or we tank their stock... Move on to the next company target

I never said they were bankrupt. It hurt their sales, which is what OPs post is about to my understanding.

Going from number 1 to number 3 is a big deal.
