Protests like this discourage businesses from supporting unethical companies like Shell. It worked in Ireland in 2005. When the Rossport Five were imprisoned, there were pickets on Shell and Statoil stations all over Ireland. Statoil had to abandon a planned expansion because the filling station owners thinking of signing up with them were unwilling to take on all the baggage that came with the Corrib controversy.
