    Can we just fucking hold these people accountable already? Stop being afraid of taking them to task…especially when you’re one of the very few entities on the planet who have the resources to do so.

      Generally the reason why it is like this is because you know others have resources to do the same to you and you don’t want to start a trend of doing that thing. Also, it’s their leverage against the people it could be used against. You’re asking an amoral group of individuals to act morally - that flies against everything they stand for.

      Are you seriously arguing for Elon Musk to be sensible?
      The guy who believes Pizza gate is a real thing.
      The guy who claimed he bought Twitter to save the earth, because it was controlled by a death cult.
      The guy who believes Jews have a goal of exterminating white people.
      The guy who believes advertisers are trying to extort him with money, and told them to go F themselves.
      The guy who believes he shouldn’t be responsible when he manipulates Tesla stock.
      That guy?
      Maybe you mean Apple, but why would it be a maker of phones job to hold Musk responsible?
      Why not call on lawmakers, and work to improve democracy in USA.

        I meant Apple, specifically their control over the App Store. We can hold more than one thing accountable, but this article was specifically referencing Apple and their App Store.
