Never believe the marketing from big tech

- Apple “privacy first” claims are a wash

- Microsoft “security above all else” is bullshit

At the end of the day, all of these are public companies that have one singular purpose: deliver shareholder value at _all_ costs

Your customers don’t matter. Your labor doesn’t matter.

What does fucking up customers over profit has to do with political orientation? Any company will do it regardless of who they voted for.

this is not about who they vote for, it's the system that is neoliberal in that allows and incentivizes only maximum profit and puts very little barriers

Political orientation determines what we let companies get away with.
