I've had several people in my life tell me after more intense studies of octopi they refuse to eat them.
While I've seen a couple of documentaries on the subject, I won't profess to know as much, but the essential argument has been that they're extremely intelligent, emotional animals. It's akin to eating a dog or cat (which might be acceptable in some parts of the world, but pretty shunned in the west).
It's convincing enough for me, I also stopped eating octopus.
A soft start if you want to research, Netflix currently has "My Octopus Teacher" streaming.
