To tell the truth, I have reservations about an organization that will not release their boycott list unless you pay them for it.

I am happy donating regularly to a variety of pro-life organizations, but I am suspicious of any organization that sells its lists.

Indeed, I wonder if they can qualify as a non-profit organization if they do that?

I would contrast this with a similar campaign a few years back in which the Catholic League wiped out "Nothing Sacred" by listing their advertisers with contact information and constantly updating it as ads were pulled. I donate to this organization, but I appreciated that those who couldn't afford to could still help boycott the companies in question.

I have to agree. I'm 100% pro-life, and when I read the beginning of this thread, I thought, "Great, I'll know what companies to avoid!" However, if they were really interested in maximizing the effect of the boycott, wouldn't they just post their list on the website for all to see?
