Yes maybe a few hundred people that maybe buy one or two of their $3 parts over their whole life time boycotting them is going to totally kill them. That's a few trays of the many hundreds of trays of components they have to sell yearly to just stay afloat BTW.

All of the guys that spend far too much time on Twitter are going to find it very hard to totally boycott FTDI's chips considering how many dev kits use the FT2232 for JTAG.
