That is a very short sighted perspective.
Jk sells for rights for x. buyer uses rights to create products, because buyer thinks it will boost sales. People buy products because of HP and sales are boosted. Buyer is happy.
Time passes.
Bought rights expire, buyer made a lot of money. Buyer wants to buy the rights again.
Alternatively
Buyer 2 sees success, wants a piece of the pie, buys rights from jk.
If you boycott HP, buyer wasted a lot of money and will not pay for an extension of the rights.
