A) Google refused to censor in the mainland and that’s why they got blocked, B) Google employees had a walkout when they tried to go back to China. C) I’ve never seen an Apple employee protest anything.
Now, that happened under a different type of Google (I’m sure they’ll go back now that they torched the culture), but Apple employees who walk around SV like they are better than everybody else - which people on their privacy teams very much do - are pathetically deluded.
All the megacorps are evil, and while Apple likes to put on a holier-than-thou act, it’s just as much bullshit for them to claim they value human rights as it is for Google to say they value privacy.
They value money, that’s it.
