#ThisIsAwesome | Boycott, er, 'Buycotting' via smartphone
App allows customers to boycott products tied to corporations like Monsanto and Koch Industries.

A newly-released app hopes to enable shoppers to put their money where their morals are. Buycott, designed by US-based developer Ivan Pardo, allows users to trace products back to their corporate sources. Shoppers scan a barcode of a particular item, and the app provides them with the corporate “family tree” of that product.
Users can highlight particular companies they want to support or avoid, and the app alerts them if the product they scanned falls under one of these “buycott” or boycott campaigns.
