What do you think the reason for Apple limiting #AirDrop to 10 seconds only on Chinese iPhones was? Just a coincidence that it happened in the middle of the #ChinaProtests where it was being used to share information without #censorship yeah?If Apple didn’t want to comply with the CCP, #Apple could just, you know, not sell iPhones in #China.#Google pulled out of the #Chinese market over a decade ago after the CCP asked them to start censoring search results in the mainland.To this day, Google does not operate in China. They’ve still been massively profitable.#TimCook went out of his way to bend over backwards to the Chinese government, knowing full well what the consequences would be, because even though Apple was already pulling in billions he wanted more:https://www.nytimes.com/2021/05/17/technology/apple-china-censorship-data.htmlThere’s no moral justification here. It’s just money money money. If you’re an Apple shareholder I’m sure you’re happy. But the fact is Apple is profiting from assisting Winnie the Pooh’s oppressive regime. Apple didn’t need to operate in the Chinese market. They never did under Steve Jobs. It was Tim Cook who went out to China and practically begged them to embrace Apple, agreeing to make any concessions the CCP wanted.But hey at least they put suicide nets on their sweatshops I guess.As for your assertion that Chinese people would have no means of communication without Apple… I mean do I really even need to explain how absurd that is?Are you #50CentArmy? Hope you at least upped your social credit score.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/50_Cent_Party

"Hey maybe if we block Twitter updates people won't realise we blocked AirDrop in China to help their oppressive government silence protestors."- #Apple
