“Tactical decisions made by a party to bring outside pressure to bear on one's opponent — be it a complaint to regulatory authorities or merely organizing a public protest or boycott — might make for good litigation strategy, but it is not compensable time.” Scott v. City and County of Denver, 2014 WL 287558 (D. Col. 2014).
