@aral@mastodon.ar.al out of ignorance: isn't Apple as involved as Microsoft with Israel

(without mentioning that e.g. Apple allowed for the Chinese Government to unleash a huge mass surveillance on Uyghurs through their phone and Tim Cook has just gave Trump a golden plate)

The comment is not for controversy, just to understand the rationale on boycotting one but not the other.

@tristynalxander yes, it says that this was something raised by a doctoral student

@tristynalxander I don’t know whether your engagement w/ LinkedIn is the reason of struggling to get a job in a moment when job cuts are on the rise thanks to companies like Microsoft - who owns LinkedIn - pushing for chatbots to replace humans.
In the case of the original post, I don’t think examiners of a PhD should be concerned by any student’s online presence
