π₯ Apple is upholding its commitment to diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI). Despite attack from right-wing anti-DEI shareholder activists -- the same anti-DEI group that targeted Costco.
And just like Costco, look for Apple shareholders to tell anti-DEI activists to take a hike on Feb 25.

But I donβt trust them until they change the name back to Gulf of Mexico
They have the most skilled long-term marketing. But every publicly-traded corp will eventually fall back on the untested "fiduciary" responsibility to be awful.
Years of experience tell me that I can't fight this battle yet.
But there's more to do to keep your info secure. See: https://allaboutcookies.org/private-browsing-safari...
2 - And if Tim Cook is giving his own personal money, that should be considered even worse. As a gay man donating to a man who wants to wipe LGBTQ off the map, what does that tell us about him?
As an older Gen X gay man Iβm not gonna second-guess his strategies for surviving in America (any less surviving in the South).
and stripped privacy rights in the UK.
So yeah...
That's a no for me.

1. He's part of the targeted group 2. Placates shareholders knowing they're ok with the hypocrisy.
He is not married and has not been married.

Veracity?
Source?
Boycott the ones on the list that have a business
The others ,traitors to the Oath they swore, we need to lock up and hold trial for attempted murder of our Constitution .
There's plenty more for both lists.
Smith & Wesson, Colt, Mossberg, Glock, Heckler & Koch etc
What brands do American Lefties ,Artsy types, Gays & fresh off the boat Immigrants like?
I'd put Apple at the top of the list.
Apple have nothing to gain by supporting Trump & everything to loose.

The far-right haters made their plea,
"Drop DEI, let bias be!"
But Apple, Costco, Delta, too,
Refused to let exclusion rule.

I worked for Apple, but it's really bad taste in my mouth with that donation. They need to get manufacturing to the US and stop playing games.
Iβve had several iPhones/iPads, but am done with all things Apple.
Itβs just good business sense.
More than a block long of employees and family walking the parade. Respect for Apple.
You can name it Gulf of Kermit for all I care, if it means physical safety for minorities

Iβm not buying anymore Apple products until I see an active commitment and not just lip service.
I am a former Google technician (did some testing in deepmind building control), so I am eyeball deep in Google products. THIS is what I want to see to bring me back to Apple. Thank you Apple for standing against the hate movement.
and all the rest!
There are many other search engines! ππ
Google also took away many #AIsafetyMeasures
