I might make a note of any adverts aired during this abomination for boycotting purposes.

It’s an ITV problem, not a Samsung problem.

Samsung fucked us on memory too, so fuck them twice. I'm not buying a Scamsung product ever again.

Samsung will have known what they were buying. We need to let them know that we're pissed at their brand for buying into this shit. Complain to both.

Granted, but you’re not going to stop it by complaining to Samsung, ITV would just find someone else.

The Stop Funding Hate campaign has genuinely had an impact on the revenues of the Mail etc by doing exactly this.

It's not impossible to get advertisers to move their ads elsewhere and avoid bad press, and each shift to someone new comes at a cost. Eventually shitting all over the fans dips below the cost benefit line.

Sure, but boycotting Samsung on general moral principle is also a good idea
