Umbrella8335Apple co-founder calls out ‘hypocrisy’ of politicians calling for TikTok ban | CNN Business
Man who profits from slave labor in China, is against China being fucked with. Why is this news?
Woz doesn’t profit from slave labor in China any more than any of us since he hasn’t actually worked for Apple since like 1985. Since then, he’s started a number of other companies doing a bunch of other stuff, like cleaning space junk most recently
Are you saying he doesn’t profit off apple as one of its largest shareholders?
That doesn’t count if he’s saying something I agree with
He was one of the largest shareholders. One third of the company in fact… but he sold most of those way back when they were worth almost nothing (as in hundreds of dollars). And as far as we know most of the rest of his shares since then were gifted to charities.
“I do not invest. I don’t do that stuff. I didn’t want to be near money because it could corrupt your values.” – Steve Wozniak
Some estimates put him at owning around $10m in shares today. He makes a good living doing speeches at universities/etc - that’s his primary wealth, not his shares in Apple.
