the ironic thing is that the way you describe apple is the way 99% of people outside of hackernews would describe the people of hackernews (or tech ppl in general).
thats like asking when do we lynch hackernews for banning the majority of people who would otherwise post here? sorry but theres a lot of money invested in particular agendas
I don’t see the international hackernews conspiracy. 99.9% of the world has not heard of hacker news. The pharma industry doesn’t own the US, any more than big fast food, lawyers in general, US automobile dealerships, the petroleum industrial complex, etc.
I’d say they all want to continue to make big profits and push for things that help them.
