UPDATE: GROUPON BOYCOTT SUCCESSFUL!

Dear Friend,

“Given all the feedback from partners like you, we reassessed not only consumer interest but also merchant opinion on these types of deals. It’s never our intention to offend customers or our business partners. Your feedback has been invaluable to us and executives are regularly informed of merchant response, both positive and negative.  As a result of the feedback from the Armory deal, we have stopped running adult deals across the country.  

 

The Playboy Mansion deal ran after the “non-adult” rule was enacted in the U.S. due to a process glitch.  As soon as we became aware of it, the deal was immediately taken down.” 

Friend, be encouraged that 20,000+ people stood with you this time. We hope that you feel as motivated as we do to continue to challenge pornography and the pornification of our society where and when you see it. We do not have to simply accept the mainstreaming of pornography and the devastation that results from it.We can fight back! Please continue to learn more, spread the word and take action when and where you can! 

P.S. Special thanks to the many of you who took action, as well as to our boycott partners: Citizens for Community Values, Girls Against Porn & Human Trafficking, American Family Association of Kansas and Missouri, Louisiana Family Forum Action, Illinois Family Institute, Women for Decency and Arizona Family Council.
