What if the ad was for a competing mode of transport? Amtrak has run ads in the plastic tubs with messages to the effect of, "If you were riding with us, you wouldn't be taking off your shoes."

Also, how deep does the principle of your action go? Would you also boycott any airlines or hotels that have GSA contract rates that DHS/TSA officials might use? What about other common vendors?
