>Well, "your ideas" contains your idea of them respecting the fact that people have different ideas and values [...]"
I have ideas on different levels that shouldn't be conflated. I'm not asking Apple or anyone else to share my preferences and tastes.
But some meta ideas are a prerequisite for disagreement on preferences, tastes and beliefs. Without those ideas we are moving towards authoritarianism.
Once global companies become dominant enough, their decisions start to either facilitate or hinder liberty and authoritarianism, even under the assumption that they have to comply with the law at all times.
I don't think being seen to be on the side of oppression and authoritarianism against your own users is ultimately conducive to maximising profits.
