This community usually discusses consumer rights, but nobody is discussing this initiative. Is it maybe cuz Lemmy's majority ain't American?

No, it won‘t. What this does is helping you take action and fight against it, knowing you are not alone. It really gives you moral support when seeing clippy on other youtube videos making you feel there are many of you who do not tolerate the bullshit.
So using a Microsoft product to fight against corporate’s greed like Microsoft. Just use libre office or any alternative instead of “changing picture” on ads platforms.
And to continue my reply to your other comment, using libre office or an alternative won't have that rallying cry effect, since you're doing it on your own.
It sounds dumb but many people won't do what they believe is right if they're alone and if the alternative is easier.
Just watch the video, he explains why. Don‘t hate on the initiative, he is on your side and tries to change things for the better.
