Liberals everywhere, not just the USA, are disgusting hypocrites. They wallow in iPhone's made by Chinese slave labor, in a country with basically zero environmental protection, so that Apple can reap obscene profits. When you point out their beloved iPhone are made this way, they either act shocked and in disbelief, deny it, or just get angry and huff away. Of course, the same is true about most all consumer electronics today, but Apple iPhones are worse precisely because of the CCP compliance they readily bow to, and because of their outright CENSORSHIP of ideas with which they philosophically disagree.
Purely speculating, but I do not believe Steve Jobs would have acceded to China's wishes. And I do not believe he would have engaged in censoring apps and platforms with which he didn't agree. Since he's dead, we'll never know, but I think he had better principles than the folks he left behind to run the store, who pretty much haven't had a decent original idea in the 11 years he has been gone. What new products have Apple launched in all that time? The iWatch. Pffft. Meh. Oh yeah, and iCensorYou...
