The colonial boycotts were an example of taxation without representation because the British imposed new tax laws without anybody from the colonies to represent them in Britain. They had no say in any new laws, or acts, that the British imposed on them. It would kind of be like if Michigan had no representatives in Congress (which means no say in our government) and had to abide by laws they had no say in.

Who was tax reduced after boycotts?

The tax reductions following boycotts are often associated with the American colonies' protests against British taxation in the 18th century. The most notable example is the reduction of the Stamp Act in response to widespread boycotts of British goods in 1765. This collective action eventually contributed to the repeal of the Stamp Act and highlighted the power of consumer resistance in influencing policy.
