That would indeed take courage and principles on Cook's part. If the board had courage & principles they wouldn't fire him. And if they did — they'd demonstrate what sort of men they are.

Tim Cook would have his self-respect.
- MBCook 9y agoI imagine a lot of stock holders would move to replace the board if the board agreed with Cook. > Tim Cook would have his self-respect. I agree. And I hope he’d hold the line. But I think the people of China would be worse off. Stockholders would be worse off. Apple would be worse off, which means as an American buying heir products it might make them slightly worse for me.
