I think it’s a post-bubble-pop boycott. These manufacturers are not ramping up production because they know the demand won’t be permanent. So when things return to normal, whenever that is, we continue to not buy their products.
The problem is this relies on two things
One - people actually remembering
Two - Data centers, enterprises, and OEMs, who make the large majority of HDD purchases also boycott.

Ummm… we’re kinda being forced to boycott already so what does calling it intentional change?
