From a non US Perspective (most of the world) this is a non issue.

Because for the rest of the world the answer to this dilemma boils down to:

Do you want to be shook down by the big guy in the left corner with the can of coke in his hand or do you prefer to be fucked over by that big Asian guy in the right corner who’s slurping on his bubble tea?

I choose the one who demands the least.

if you really believe Tim Apple isn’t doing the same shit only a Little bit smarter so its les obvious then I’m sorry to wake you from your dream but:

All big tech is bad. Apple. Microsoft. Oracle. Meta. Snap. IBM. Digital Ocean. Amazon. Etc.

There are no good guys. Only bad and worse. Its not the good, the bad and the ugly. It’s the bad (Apple), the really bad (Microsoft and most of the rest) and the obnoxiously bad. (Special place in hell for Meta, TikTok and Google)
