Don’t take this as advice to ignore the picketers, this is a genuine question because I don’t understand.
Wouldn’t it be more effective to have MORE people do the games today, and for them to disable ads and trackers when they do? Put strain on the services while the workers are on strike, highlighting the need for them.
I don’t think it could ever add up to a significant amount without the whole planet doing so. Not using the services today sends a measurable number of people who are behind the strike, instead of just most likely making it a very successful day numbers-wise.
I don’t think sabotaging the product is a wise move if they ever will land a new job.
It’s different from laying down work temporarily for a better bargain position, and asking users to support them with that, because it’s a bit different than a car factory that stops working immmediatly as a result.
If car workers would go out of their way to destroy already produced cars or the machines, they wouldn’t last long at the bargain table.

Sorry, I mean for users respecting the boycott to choose to simultaneously not give NYT any ad money while also causing load on the games servers.
