Upvoted not because I agree. But we have seen time and time again only the founder are willing to stand up against these sort of things. ( I mean Steve gave the biggest middle finger to PRISM ) Managers are always looking at shareholder responsibility, that if they dont comply there might be severe consequences.

But I still dont think it is forced upon by the government, because the whole thing sounds and smells very Apple. Doing it for the child.

While turning a blind eye to the atrocities committed by China. In which case they're doing it for the money. Moral righteousness only seems to reflect upon the markets not driving growth.
