A pro-Palestinian app created to help consumers boycott Israeli products has gained traction on TikTok amid calls in Hebrew-language media for Google to ban it.
The free app, called “No Thanks,” was launched by Palestinian graduate student Ahmed Bashbash last November. Downloaded by 100,000 users within a month, the app enables consumers to scan product barcodes to determine if the item has connections to Israel.
By the start of April, “No Thanks” reported one million people had downloaded the app. Millions of users had viewed tikTok influencer videos promoting “No Thanks,” contributing to the app’s growth of 900,000 downloads in four months.
I checked it, Paramount Studios publicly proclaimed as one of the very first that they stand with israel. So the boycott claim is completely valid.
The articles about supporting Israel and donating are from October 12th. That’s not anti-palestinian, that’s anti-hamas.
It is pro israel and they are not showing any type of support for Palestinians. Their statement amounts to manufacturing consent for Genocide only.
This app shows products with ties to israel. Paramount studios clearly falls under that. If you don’t want to boycott israel that’s up to you.
