Apple refuses to back GOP convention because of Trump politics
weathers said:I'm not a Trump fan and I am an Apple product user, but I find it ironic that Apple (Tim Cook) doesn't seem to mind selling their products in countries who degrade women and persecute gays and lesbians. The hypocrisy of either party is getting to ridiculous levels. -

But SO does Clinton... Arguably worse in many areas. I read Clinton Cash (well reviewed in the left & right press) and it is horrifying. There's lots of smart members on this board. Read the book or google some of the articles about it.
Bottom line: I don't think it's a good idea for Apple to take sides.
Seems Apple is forgetting that America is a place of freedom - speech, religion, choice, etc.
I like Apple, but censorship is wrong. And that's all this is. -

First Amendment baby. Corporations get to decide for themselves what political agendas they support: or oppose. Oh, and the Supreme Court of the United States in Citizens United.
Now refusing to SELL things to the Republican Party? Isn't that's the Pub argument for wedding cake bakers? If they did (and that's not what the article says, just contributions) it'd be ironic eh? -
