Honestly, paying for a (primarily) multiplayer game isn't a problem for me. I actually might prefer it when you look at Overwatch vs Overwatch 2. But I wasn't about to sign up for a playstation account to play my Steam game.

Do online multiplayer video games count as a commercial use? I kind of like those

No, I don't think you're going to do anything either way. When there was only the Raytheon protest, I doubt you called your state representatives about Palestine. Now that they're also blocking traffic, I'm sure you'll continue to do nothing.

I think the most effective protest would be one that directly acts against what they're protesting against, like putting traffic cones on self driving cars or the Tyre Extinguishers deflating tires.

But that kind of protest doesn't really apply to sending billions of dollars worth of weapons overseas unless you want to do something very illegal or violent. So whatever the people protesting think will help seems good enough to me.

Is getting a news story all that matters for an "effective" protest? If so, you must think blocking traffic is an incredibly effective protest strategy.

Protesters accuse Raytheon of abuses, block plant entrances

It's amazing how protesters already tried that and nothing happened.

18 people facing charges for allegedly defacing Raytheon sign during protest in Tewksbury

Somehow, the "effective" protests you recommend don't seem to be doing anything. Do you have any other bright ideas? Maybe something that the average person will actually learn about?

Another problem might be that animal shapes only has a range of 30 ft

Even if it's a joke, how wrong are you?

If you plan on moving out anyways, why not just sell the house? It'd give you a large up front sum of money, and you would never have to worry about maintenance or bad tenants again.

But it's also an 18 year old movie, so it doesn't do much to disprove that good comedies don't get made any more.
