They're a 48 billion dollar revenue global corporation, they don't give a fuck and aren't going to change their sponsorship policy over one, one thousand, or even ten-thousand letters.

Even a multi-city march wouldn't evoke more than a similar wishy washy response, the translation of which would be the same: fuck you.

Fuckers.
