Protest

Apple computer has stopped advertising on Twitter since Musk took over and they are demanding content moderation which means Twitter must not allow anything that Apple says is disinformation or misinformation. Apple feels they know truth. They threaten to block Twitter from the Apple store. Apple policies in China are not so altruistic. Human rights groups have found evidence suggesting that seven Apple suppliers in China are using forced labor through state-run “poverty alleviation programs” targeting the Uyghur population. The same double standard can be seen where women's groups in the US are silent as women protest in the streets in Iran and civil rights groups here are silent as the Chinese people protest for freedom.
