Software companies do not have moral high ground to attack hardware companies for labor practices because software companies benefit from cheap and plentiful hardware. If Facebook was only able to be accessed by hardware produced by fair labor practices then they would not have a social network worth talking about. In addition, I doubt Facebook’s Portal and Oculus series of hardware have significantly better labor practices than Apple.

I’m pointing out that neither company here has the moral high ground. If you’re bashing FB but defending Apple, then you too, are being hypocritical.

I think it’s perfectly reasonable to defend Apple for this particular stance without having to marry them.
