Well, “wrong” is subjective, but it’s certainly pointless to get mad at such a company.

Companies are amoral, and they are emergent behavior that is a product of a particular political, economic, and cultural situation.

It’s a bit like getting outraged at a tree for falling on your house.

Human beings are also an emergent behavior that are a product of complex biological processes and their environment. Is it pointless to become outraged at a person?
