Those who have a problem with these initiatives, remember, you are the minority right now. If you decide to take a stance and leave the platform because you disagree with Apple and Tim’s social policies, the company wouldn’t miss you one bit. Oh by the way, other tech companies share the same values, too, so, again, you are a minority. A lot of you became overnight Apple users because its a status symbol. When you look at who Steve Jobs used in the Think Different campaigns, you could seriously tell a lot of the negativity in here are coming from users who don’t have any belief in human rights, equality, justice and dignity for others. Is Apple ignoring human rights violations in countries where it does business such as China? Likely yes, but its not Apples responsibility to be the worlds sole human rights advocate. That’s why we have governments, politicians, diplomats, United Nations. The United States, Canada, other Asian countries, Caribbean, Europe, South America all do trade with China too. At the same time, companies and individuals can play their role in their own jurisdictions where they do have some power.
