Though there is something called the _imperial boomerang_ coined by Aimé Césaire in her discourse on colonialism. It is totally okay for companies to oppress/murder people in other countries as part of their business model. But what goes around, comes around. You give a shit because it is wrong, and if you are a sociopath, then at least think that this will come bite you in the ass.\n\nBut really, if there is a (good) choice beyond Google / iOS , we would not give two passes of gas what Google does with lockdowns. But if something released is ‘Lord Vader’ (Motorola) approved, then it’s just as toxic as anything else.",
