    More companies and countries should boycott the world cup.

      “More” countries? Are there countries boycotting already?

        At least several French cities, Barcelona and two German pub owners are boycotting. I also read about one beer brand that has made boycotting the event a part of its marketing.

          Ah, I read that, too. Boycotting public viewing is better than nothing, but they should cancel the entire event.
