Why boycott? Just use their free services and never pay for it. Cost them money instead of pay them money is a step further than boycott.

Investor confidence is far more important to them than cashflow, and the best way to shake investor confidence is with the magic words "user numbers are down".
That sounds smart but they still raise more money because they “have 900 million users”
If it’s free, then you’re the product. OpenAI gets your data and ad revenue, and can raise more investor money due to how many users they have.
# of sticky non-paying users still gives them more investment juice than per user costs deducts, since we're still in the speculative phase.
If you aren’t paying for the product, you are the product being sold. No, thank you.
This is a website full of programmers.
I expect an extension or Python script that ask it to generate 100 random complex questions and then proceeds to ask for answers until your limits on the free plan are reached on a loop
Free services are garbage, you dun know what you're getting routed to
Even when it's not free, you can't even guarantee you aren't being routed to something else
You do probably give them useful data by doing that.
ChatGPT is going to try to influence you to buy certain products and use certain services. So you'll be the product in the end
