I’m going to follow the union’s lead because they’re best equipped to suggest whether a boycott is called for. Heads up anyway.
Despite being a technologist, I don’t read Wired because of a long standing disagreement with them on something I’m not keen to get into. I knew Condé Nast owned Ars Technica who I do occasionally read. I didn’t know they publish them. which I also occasionally read.
Update from the union:
Breaking News: Late last night Conde Nast illegally fired 4 union organizers who asked company execs to explain the downsizing of Teen Vogue and continued layoffs. We’ve filed a grievance.

Yeah, alright, that’s enough. Until I hear otherwise from the union, I’m boycotting all Condé Nast publications.

Update and call to action from the Condé Nast Union:
Stand with Condé Nast Union 🚨 We’re calling on you to sign our petition telling management to reinstate the Fired Four, reverse the suspensions, and end the union busting.
This began when Condé Nast laid off the staff from Teen Vogue. Union members demanded answers from management. Management illegally fired four organizers for engaging in protected activity.
