I'm sick to death of seeing these corporations pretending to care about human rights, then doing stuff like this

Or pretending to care about the environment, then forcing people to buy new devices (with packaging) instead of repairing the ones they already own

Or pretending to care about privacy, then scanning local files for "undesirable content" (it doesn't matter what the content is, once the infra is there, it's there to stay)

If there's one thing I've learned, it's that whenever a corporation says something that sounds good, it's probably a lie.

The only thing that will ever force Apple's hand with regard to this human rights issue is legislation, they've lost the right to trust long ago
