If boycotting and consumer education worked, we would not have this discussion. Console and title sales are through the roof, despite tech-savvy people and press all over the world calling bullshit on DRM.
There's some successful boycotts, when there's a hell of a lot more on the line than just the inability to play COD. They're not doing anything illegal, and they don't need to.

It's never time for more drastic (illegal) measures if someone provides a product you don't like. They're providing a shitty "feature" that frustrates you when your shitty internet connection is down. If it frustrates you so much, don't use it, get your friends not to use it, blog about it, post about it, spread the word. Look what happened to Sim City last year.
