Not real apologies, like from people — just corporate apologies, like from paid-for stooges.

Holding corporations (or anyone) to account requires having some way for them to rectify their past sins.

Otherwise this is just vengence. If you never forgive there is no rational reason for corporations (or anyone) to stop doing whatever objectionable things they are doing, since it would already be a sunk cost.
