@kevinrenskers @brentsimmons Your disappointment is understandable, but also feels a bit naive—it may sound condescending, sorry—of Apple’s operations. They were able to become the company you loved by manufacturing most of their products in China (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_rights_in_China). I don’t think anyone lost his or her soul this year more than they did 30 years ago, it has just become more obvious, closer to home. The best thing to do is to get rid of dictators or aspiring ones. Business will adapt. 💪

    @thibautsailly @brentsimmons I’m not arguing Apple was ever perfect. I’m arguing that Cook is making new choices that visibly damage Apple’s reputation today. Past complicity doesn’t make present alignment beyond criticism.
