Tim Cook sold Apple's soul

Apple used to stand for something. Now Tim Cook gifts golden statues to Trump, removes apps at the administration's request, and cozies up to accused rapists at White House screenings. The company I once admired has become morally bankrupt, but leaving the ecosystem feels almost impossible.
apple is a company, very good at selling itself as a lifestyle. but there's only one person, who's been gone for 15 years, who could keep that reality distortion field inflated.
we didn't see it directly in the US but imagine the compromises they had to make to be so in bed with the chinese government? the US isn't that far gone yet but we're getting there.
the story is very old, the diff is that people just don't like to see it on their tv. ;-)
