LOL--speaking of boycotts--boycott expedia.  They fund spyware:

(Which perversely enough, seems to enrage me more than unfair labor
practices.)

The page you referenced says that the Marriott and Courtyard are OK.

I will probably choose not to stay at any of the convention hotels,
since I'll be on my own nickle.  Expedia shows less expensive hotels
nearby, and I will try to check some out soon.  Note to those unfamiliar
with San Francisco: hotels west of the convention center may be in
unpleasant neighborhoods - check the reviews.
