  There's a trend here: you claim moral authority to defend unscrupulous aspects of your government/country, but don't extend the same privilege to, say the American defense agencies, or Google, who'd like to do business with them. It's trivial to go on a diatribe here about Swiss numbered accounts being bathed in the blood of innocents, on whose heads murderers, despots, dictators accrued the said wealth, now being actively protected by the Swiss government under the guise of privacy.

Your demonetization of American foreign policy is similarly simplistic, and demanding that Google not serve American defense, similarly silly. All that is being requested here is consistency, not simplistic and inaccurate reduction-ism. It's disingenuous to reduce Switzerland to a singular identity of "murder enablers", as it is with America, or it's foreign policy
