People can vote the government out on the next election but they can't vote Tim Cook and other executives out of Apple unless they're shareholders with significant voting powers.

And don't tell me to "vote with my wallet". We're talking about Big Tech, not your next door kebab shop.

You can vote out the government, you can’t vote out the state.

And yes. Don’t give them money. Buy something else. We are not short on phone or laptop brands.

Exactly. Corp. at least have some expectation about revenue and reputation etc. Certain % of people only cost government, literally.
